    Before reaching out to them, there are some things you can do to test your hardware and OS integrity. You can start by performing a clean reinstall of your graphics drivers, which is worth doing from time to time.

    If you want to check the integrity of your hard drive, you can run a chkdsk: https://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/chkdsk.mspx?mfr=true

    There are a lot of steps here, but it's worth checking your system from time to time anyway.
