When i try to start games that requires direct draw like; Need for Speed Underground 2, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, StarCraft and many others, they would restart my computer. I know it is Direct Draw because when i use a program called CheckIt Diagnostics, it restarts when it goes to Direct Draw test. I tried many things like; uninstalling and reinstalling video card drivers and mobo drivers, update DirectX, reinstalling the games, and updating drivers.
I also went start - run - dxdiag - display - and did the direct draw and acceleration test and it says they work fine, but CheckIt would restart once it checks directdraw.
This problem never happend before and those games use to work fine.
There was a game that restarted my computer, but i was able to change it to Window Mode instead of Fullscreen mode because it had an Option icon outside the game and it worked and didnt restart my computer.
Anyone have any ideas to fix my problem?
DirectX: 9.0c
Vid Card: Radeon 9550 256mb
Right when it crashes, this blue screen comes up and has the message
*** STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0x00000191, 0xA88A9CC8, 0x00000000)
