Having a problem with Star Wars Galaxies and my T43. The game plays for a minute or so, then crashes with a BSOD before restarting. When windows reboots and sends off an error message, I get sent to a webpage telling me that I'm not DirectX 9.0 compatible. The irony is that according the SWGs config screen, I'm running DirectX 9.0.
Any ideas? I bought this laptop as a reconditioned unit last year and have made no hardware mods to it.

Go to Control Panel, doubleclick on System, select Advanced/Startup & Recovery-Settings and under System Failure untick Automatically restart.
Reboot the laptop and start playing.
It will now tell you on what it crashes, when it happens next time.
