RAM and CPU Usage Inquiry
Hi all i just wanted to know whats going on with my laptop(lenovo ideapad), as i just bought the awesome guild wars 2 but after only a day of playing, the next day i played it it kept crashing in all sorts of ways(blue screens, purple pixels, blackouts etc.). okay so i dont know if the videocard is the problem, i hear theres a chance it is as ive heard stuff about nvidia being incompatible with gw2, but i also think its the ram and other stuff. ive got i7 and an 8 gig ram, i dont know how to post screenies though ive searched this stuff on google but i still cant paste the screenie i captured in paint. well these are the stuff i see on my task manager :
with only this and task manager running, i have 94 processes(i hear this is bad, is it normal to have like 10 .exe of chrome? or are they like different parts of chrome?), cpu usage at 0-1%, physical memory at 19-21%. forgive me if the details i post are quite beginner-ish, because honestly i really am quite a beginner in these things. if anyone could kindly assess my problem it would be thoroughly appreciated, thank you
