PC hangs when trying to view pictures

[redpis]

Hi All,

Hope you can help me with this, I have quite an old Tiny Desktop PC and when I try and view pictures, the PC hangs.

The graphics card fan had seized, so I fitted a new fan but the problem still exits, I'm not a techie so not sure where to start, I dont want to skip it if it is something simple as I have loads of stuff on the PC.

Cheers

Ian

There are a raft of possibilities. i'd start by swapping the graphics card out. You could well have cooked it before you noticed the fan was fooked.

overloaded RAM by any chance? you have said its quite old and you have loads on it, maybe too much!
