Freezing and Runtime Errors

Well, as most of you know, I recently got a new laptop, Alienware m14x. While the laptop has amazing performance and doesn't lag AT ALL (still haven't tried Smasho Abassa :P ), I have started getting frequent Freezes and Runtime Errors. I once froze up at the recent Triangle of Terror event (when we were in the catacombs) and it has happened a few times in SVS, same goes for the runtime errors. I can't be exactly sure what triggers it, but I deduced that it seems to happen in what normally would be a heavy lag situation, although that may not be it. I'm not sure why this is, but it has become extremely irritating for me, obviously, because I need to force quit POTCO and lose any progress I'm making, as well as interrupting whatever I'm doing.

I've been told I may need to download the latest driver for my Graphics Card (thanks Doc), but I just want to see if there's any other things that may be causing it. This is a brand new laptop, and a dang good one at that. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
