When I first got my machine the chess game worked fine. Now when I try to play it just sits there and eventually locks up the machine. I have to do a hard reboot. I have two NVidia GeForce 7600 GS video cards. I even tried to uninstall and reinstall the game and it still tries to load the saved game I was playing the last time it worked. Any way to clear it completely out and then reinstall?

The file could be corrupt due to unauthorized modification or the invalid hash could indicate a potential disk device...

When I play graphics-intensive games on my Vista (specifically, Warcraft III, Maplestory, and Dawn of War), my screen often begins to flicker. The flickering grows more and more frequent, until the computer blacks out and freezes for about a second.
