windows Vista vs Flight Simulator X?

Hi everybody. My PC:
2.13 GHz, 1066 Mhz dual core
2048MB DDR2
500 GB
NVIDIA Geforce 7900GS 256 MB
Vista 32bit
When I start FSX the PC goes down (+bluescreen). Only once I could play a
couple of houres and then it went down. I updated all the hardware and
installed Vista and FSX again.
Does vista can have trouble with FSX? I can't understand, if it's a
hardware's or a software's (vista vs FSX) problem.
Thanks for the support
Asa

Update your drivers to the new one's that were posted today
(http://www.nvidia.com/object/winvista_x86_101.41.html). That fixes a couple
problems with FSX and NVIDIA cards.

....and the tecnical informations are:
stop:0x00000124 (0x00000000, 0x8489A608, 0xB2000000, 0x00000175)

As Dustin said, it's probably an issue between nVidia vs everything. Rather
than FSX vs Vista.

Updating your drivers should fix it up.

I updated my drivers with the new one but the PC still goes down when I start
FSX.
Does there is something else that I can try or do I have to wait 'till
Nvidia fix the problem with a new driver?
Thanks a lot

what kind of power supply do you have? maybe you don't have enough juice...
that was my problem for the longest time.
