yes, i know i've been posting many posts about blue screens and maplestory, and vista. But, i need to get to the bottom of it! OK so, whenever i played maplestory i would recieve numerous blue screens of death. Whenever i would get these blue screens i would always turn off my vista rather than letting it restart. Eventually i kept doing this, and my vista was being very slowly to respond (ex: i would click firefox, and it would pop up like 3 mins later), another problem i think that could've happened is that at some point, ANYTHING that had to use the internet would not work. Even when i had the internet! I checked to see if i was connected to the internet (and i was), but anything that requires the internet, would not work.

So, my question is:

Am i correct to say that turning off my comp. every time i received a blue screen of death, rather than letting it restart on its own, i would turn if off, did this basically destroy my vista?

Or...

My Computer needs a vga (which i've found) in order for maplestory to like not kill my vista?

Also,

If it's #1 that's correct, how can i avoid the blue screens? also, i would get slowdown from my computer (and i dont want to keep erasing my hard drive, and re-installing my computer OVER AND OVER again, and i dont want to keep on buying microsoft words 2007) how can i avoid that?

Thank You for your help~
