Dust causes blue screens after playing games for a while, right?
I recently posted a question about my computer humming. People said dust. I was able to clean some dust from the outside that was by a fan. humming stopped.
But today, I got a blue screen after exiting a game. I was on it for like an hour. The blue screen showed for like only 2 damn lousy seconds.
I managed to get
“Problem with video card something, to prevent any harm, windows is shutting down. if this is your first”
and that’s all I got. should I buy a can of air or something, take off the computer cover, and clean it out? and then buy a dust cover?
this place is pretty dusty.
Please Help Me if you know anything.

I bought the computer over the internet. But I’m sure it’s not because I bought it over the internet. I’m confident. but if someone thinks otherwise, please tell me your opinion, or knowledge.
Almost forgot. I got another blue screen like it a few months ago.
wait wait wait…. I mean, if a computer overheats, it causes blue screens, and more likely if it's dusty?

Sounds like windows is having problems with your video card.
Buy a new one, try it out. If it doesn’t fix the problem, return the card.

First of; no, dust does not cause blue screens.
Seems like your GPU is lacking when having to play your games. It might be a driver-issue, why not start by downloading the latest driver from the manufactor of your GPUs website.
If that wont do it, it might be defect. Have a repairsmen to take a look or test with another GPU.
