No matter what DirectX game I play in Windows 2000 after a couple of minutes of play my system locks up. I have to use the reset switch to get out it is that bad. I am using Detonator2 version 5.22 with my TNT2 Ultra.

Overheating? Even though you might not be overclocking. Those graphic intense games produce heat. Also does it lock up in OPENGL?

When you go generic you should also keep in account that it won't be 100% to the intel standard. Most of my coworkers who have this problem found some AGP driver for their chipset that will work with AGP card. Go to your motherboard website and download their latest AGP driver for Windows 2000.

Read the post below with K7M+GFORCE+ATHLON, I just replyed too. It seems to fix all stability issues with win2k.

****NOTE*****

This Asus driver is for any AMD-750 Chipset motherboard ONLY. Do not install for any MB using VIA chipset. This is a beta driver from AMD for their chipset. If you have nay questions please post.

Hi,

but if the ASUS "AMD AGP Filter Driver for Windows 2000" is beta, maybe there is a newer one? Ver. 5.02 does not help on my system!

The driver is from September 1999 (!) and therefore really old. The AGP Driver of the retail W2K version is much newer (December 1999).

Bye
