Grafichardware errors

Hey

I have a Nvidia 8500 GT and I had installed Vista on my pc, but the problem
is, when I install the drivers and restart my pc, the monitor crashes black
and after 2 minutes the bluescreen appears but I cannot read it because the
pc is too fast to let me read it.

Is a solution possible or not?

In the moment I use Windows XP Service Pack 2

Hi, Angel.

To get plenty of time to read the BSOD (Blue Screen of Death), you can
change the default setting for what Windows (the same in WinXP and in Vista)
should do when it "crashes". Press the Windows logo key + the Pause/Break
key to bring up the System Properties window. Then on the Advanced tab,
under Startup and Recovery, click Settings. On this page, under System
failure, clear the checkbox in front of Automatically restart. The next
time the problem happens, the BSOD should stay on the screen until you press
the computer's Reset button (or power off/on). This will give you all the
time you need to read the message and copy the Stop message so that you can
post it verbatim into your next message.

Hey Angel--

Don't you have several choices of drivers to use for the Nvidia 8500 GT
card?

and also check the hotfixes for Vista available:
