Yes, all other programs (non-game) work without a hitch and never have lockups. Of course, they are not mem intensive programs like games, but high-def movie trailers, music vids, picture rendering all work fine... Just the games....
Up until it crashes back to desktop, the graphics are smooth as silk. I have never set it up to highest level, just left it at what game recommended for the card (which was still pretty high in my book). Lowering the settings didn't help.
Funny thing, after installing all the Win2000 "critical" pack updates and installing DirectX9, now the problem is worse, i.e., the sysdump.txt error popping up now and crashing faster.
Thanks for the reply!
