Problem:
When starting some games released BEFORE 2007 year (roughly) after playing the initial splash screen (for example, Bink Video), the system tightly hangs with a black screen. All attempts of interaction (call Manager via Ctrl-Alt-Delete, altab and other) do not work at all. If so to leave, then after quite a long time (5-10 minutes) blue screen of death. You can cut off the netbook by holding the power button, and everything works as normal, no anomalies, as if nothing had happened.
Spoilerphobe:
1. I do not think that the problems in the obstruction of system requirements, I am free to start games with much higher. Especially now talking about Crusader Kings game from Paradox Interactive, is that games from the ships I played in EU3, Victoria 2 and EU: Rome, which came later and had higher requirements. When you start the game, released LATER in 2007, such problems are not met, almost never.
2. Tried to run in a window using D3D Windower (the game is not a config file in the folder to do it through him), if nothing is done, then just a black window with music. If you hover the cursor over the window, the system hangs with the same result. Without interactions with the D3D was just a black screen without sound.
3. If I could replace/buy another computer or new components for this, I'd did not ask for help, well, just in case I will clarify.
The most simple - create a records in the programs of Dxdiag and msinfo32. At the end of files-reports, you will see error messages Windows. Maybe something to dig out. At least the error code you something to Google.
P. S. if you Should torment seven is weak iron and even for games? There Windows XP would feel much better and problems with the old games would be less.
The problem is either on the side of the software and it's easier to just simply carry Windu, because it will be easier and on manipulation will spend less time.
Also, the default did not specify what game he runs? Probably put in a small amount of RAM, or maybe the laptop is strongly heated and just simply chopped off, perhaps because of the Chinese batteries, the system cannot operate at high loads. Possible defective video chip or motherboard. Also there are more number of microproblem that have to be solved in the service centers, because there they can test your system. Anyway to play on the laptop in the game - not the best solution.

Since built-in video card supports only DirectX 9, it really worth to install Windows XP.
I once installed a set of codecs, some games stopped running, had to reinstall Windows.
