Fit PC2 crashes when clicking on Google Earth

Has anyone experienced this?
1mb machine, latest BIOS.
I have tried it under XP, the symptom is no more response until rebooted.

I then loaded W7 where the symptom is the blue screen (BSOD)

In both cases I downloaded and installed the latest drivers.
Chipset drivers first , followed by the 2 display drivers.

The planet never gets filled with detail, just the outline of the planet is visible, then failure.

Any advice gratefully received

Thanks John

Hi,
After trying to check Google Earth behavior on Linux Mint platform, I've received a notification that fit-PC2 HW is not capable of fully supporting Google Earth graphics.

As you say, due to lack of HW resources it doesn't fill the planet with details, though doesn't crash.

Maybe on your Windows system (combination of memory and GPU capabilities) it gets some fatal error and results in Blue screen.

Thanks,
Maxim.
