    PC crashing when accessing certain areas

    Tried searching around, couldn't find much info that seems similar, but anyways...

    My friend and I just built him a new PC and this weird problem just started appearing out of no where lately. Whenever he zones into port jeuno, the pc crashes. The screen goes blank and loses signal, I can't alt+tab out or anything. It wasn't always like this, but it's starting to spread to different areas it seems (like bastok). We tried re-installing and updating video card drivers. Not sure why a specific zone would crash the whole PC, or maybe just the video. He has a similar setup to mine and I have no problems whatsoever. I am stumped and can't figure this out, so hopefully someone from here can :D Any help would be appreciated. I can get more info at request.

    Windows Vista 32bit
    ATI HD3870 with latest drivers
    amd dualcore 5600
    2gig ram
    asus mobo (forgot which model)

    (sorry if I missed any important info, I am at work and about to clock out :D )

    Try setting all vid card options to their lowest and see if it still happens. Also, what ISP do you use? Might want to try reinstalling network drivers too.
