why does my computer screen freeze up whenever it plays video's?

Answer 1

Your computer may not have enough memory(RAM).

Answer 2

Try checking the memory requirement of the game against your own PC. Does your computer have enough memory?

Are you on Broadband? If not, a dial up may be far too slow for the game.

Also, remember to shut down any other application you may be running before you start the game.

Clear disk space by getting rid of old downloads and files you don't use any more, wiping clean your internet history, and general tidying up duties like defragmenting.

This should sort the trouble out one way or another...

Answer 3

Try this:

1. If you color setting is 32bit, step down to 16bit. Just right click on the desktop then click properties, click settings. Adjust under color quality.

2. If you computer is using integrated graphics, increase its memory allocation, usually in BIOS. You might not be able to do this if your RAM is limited in the first place. Buy another memory module to increase RAM so you will have more to share for videoram.

Hope this helps.
