This seems to be a common problem. I don't think there is really a fix for it either. I think it has something to do with the graphics card using more vram then it has or something.
The only fix I found for it was to install windows 7.
I HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH MY 8800GTS! Ok, It goes away! I had the issue for 2 days, then it stopped!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
