Hello,
I actually have an NVIDIA GeForce 256 graphics card, but when I put it in my PC
it works for 1 hour and then everything freezes and I can no longer use it; I have to uninstall the drivers for the graphics card. How can I get it to work properly?

P.S.: I have a 300W power supply; is that enough?

Can you please help me? It's urgent.
Configuration: Windows XP Firefox 2.0.0.16

    Here is the translation:

    "Here I am, I am doing it with the graphics card, is it to install it or the other one that doesn't work?"
