I have been using LimeWire for quite awhile and after I upgraded to the new version I have been experiencing problems with it. When I launch LW, about 5-10 seconds later my screen displays a blue error screen and it says "physical memory dump" and it forces me to restart my computer. I do not know what this means or what the problem is so if anyone could help me out that would be great, thanks.

I take it you are a windows user and, since the upgrade, you are getting this "blue screen of death".

I believe that you have hit an incompatibility between LW and your video driver, and, as far as I am aware, you only really have three ways to cure this problem:

a) Upgrade your video driver by going to your video card's manufacturer’s web site, download and install the latest drivers.

b) Wait until the next version of LW is available then download and install.

c) Uninstall LW.

However, it is possible that you got your diagnosis wrong and either you are someone you allow to use your computer has downloaded something that has screwed up you your system, if that is the case then you are on your own.

Before installing anything further on your system, run an AV app and some anti-spyware apps to clean up your PC, that shoulds help things.

Memory probs can also be due to bad ram chips. Though I suspect UKBob is on the money. 1. Link 1, 2. Link 2, 3. Link 3, 4. Link 4
