Display Driver When any games or graphic related devices are attempted to be played the computer will jerk before freezingand display a Display Driver message. It has Windows Vista installed and is brand new.

Hello there!

Unfortunately,Dota 2 was only available to Windows and Ubuntu.You should try redownloading it,since it's now out for Linux(Your OS).If that doesn't work,you might aswell be updating your graphics driver from
Support.amd.com

Cheers,
Aldo.

Depends on the game you are playing .. Chk the min graphics card spec needed.. that card you have is pretty old to play heavy games.
Try playing in windowed mode if game supports with low graphic settings

Your graphics driver may be corrupted or not properly installed. You need to install that to get proper graphics and also to prevent restarts.

Looks like this is related to the types of graphics devices in your computer.
If you have two similar graphics cards (that use the same driver) but have different interfaces (AGP, integrated, PCI-E 8, 16 etc) Windows will disable one and give you this message.
If you have only one display adapter, try updating your device driver.
If you have multiple display adapters, you might have to pick one and remove or disable the other.
Reply with more specific details (graphics device manufacturer, type, number, interface, etc.) for more help!
Good Luck!

try downloading the most recent driver software for your video card keyboard mouse usb and all your other drivers to do this the easy way just right click on my computer and go to properties then go to hardware then device manager and go through your devices network card display adapters sound and video and game controllers and hit update one by one

I assume that you are using a TV with the Computer to watch a Blu-Ray disc using HDMI connection.

In order to play a Blu-ray Disc (BD) movie on a television, the display configuration must be set to display on the television only. Having the image set to display on the computer and the television at the same time will generate the above STOP error message "Your display environment does not support protected content playback message".

Follow this procedure to properly configure the settings
needed to play a Blu-ray Disc (BD) movie on a television.

1. Connect the Computer to the TV using an HDMI cable.

2. On the Computer, click the Start -> Control Panel -> Appearance and Personalization -> Adjust screen resolution.

3. In the Display Settings window, click the Advanced Settings button -> Intel Graphics Media Accelerator tab -> Graphics Properties button.

4. In the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator window, under Operating Mode, click the down arrow and then click to select Single Display.

5. Under Primary Device click the down arrow and then click to select Digital Television, and then OK.

6. At the Confirm the Desktop Change prompt, click the OK.

7. In the Advanced Settings window, click the OK button.

8. In the Display Settings window, click the OK button.

9. In the Control Panel window, click Hardware and Sound.

10. In the Hardware and Sound window, under Sound, click Manage audio devices.

11.In the Sound window, click to select HDMI Device, and then click the Set Default button.

12. In the Sound window, click the OK button.

13. Now close the Control Panel window.


NOTE: Also check for any update for the software you are using to play the videos and update for the Video Driver

Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!

The game you are trying to play does not support your graphics card or ther is a problem

Also make sure that your antivirus is not blocking the games
