The compatibility issues won't be constant, and won't necessarily make the system totally unstable. (and I have found that the nForce 4 chipset is most likely incompatible w/Win8.1)
My point here is that we may not be able to fix the errors (but we'll try) - so your only recourse (when you get fed up with the errors) may be to revert to a previous version of the OS
This isn't a matter of Win8.1 not supporting the nForce 3 chipset - rather it's a matter of nVidia not updating the chipset to work with Win8.1. Most times this is a financial decision on the manufacturer's part - not a technical problem (they won't sell any more nForce 3 chipsets - so why update it?).
And, finally, it's not just the chipset (although that is a major factor). They system has numerous drivers installed that date from 2006/7 and they are most likely not compatible w/Win8.1
Only 19 Windows Updates installed. Most systems have 26 or more. Please visit Windows Update and get
ALL available updates (it may take several trips to get them all).
Please update these older drivers. Links are included to assist in looking up the source of the drivers. If unable to find an update, please remove (un-install) the program responsible for that driver. DO NOT manually delete/rename the driver as it may make the system unbootable! :
