i think i found what the real trouble was.

ASUS MFG of the Video card Radion X1600 Pro
they have their own fan control running (smart doctor)
and Ati has their own Fan control going too. (ati smart)

having both instill and running was making the game go crap on me. i unstill ASUS Smart Doctor totally.

and ran the game max as i can do a lot of things going off in Black & White 2 were it would lag (screen lag) there was none at all. and i got no error or game crash.

have to wait after a week to see if there any more error, at this time play the games like 5hrs none stop and no crash to desktop at all.

there a newer version of ati driver i may get later this week version 6.10
