Ummm, My driver crashed, help me?

I was on youtube, suddenly There was a whurring noise, and the screen went dark. then it came bac up. but the picture for youtube's video was darkish green. And then a notification from windows said my driver crashed. This is the first time this has happened to me.

But do you guys have any ideas for what this thing could be?
I think my video card overheated D:

Wrong forum to ask this. Most of the people here are kids.

If your screen is more green than usual, it maybe helps to put your cables in a bit more. That's all I can say now. This might be useful: http://www.drivershq.com/

Hm...... If the driver crashed then restarting should fix it. It should restart with Windows. XP Vista or 7?

Goolge it?
Post a picture?
Go to a computer store?
Mostly when I destroy my com I just bring it to a computer store, there they always repair it for me

nVidia card?

I got that a lot when I overclocked them too much. It can happen randomly too, just reboot and leave it, unless it starts happening frequently.

If you wanna check your temps, download RealTemp:

An average GPU can safely get up to 85c under load, depending on the card. So what card do you have?
