Just to clear things up here... me and my friend just know each other over the internet... as I stated he has a totally different computer set up and different video card... only thing in common was the error. Not to mention it would be extremely difficult for us to "share" a copy of windows 2000 as implied. Yes we both have legit copies of windows 2000 pro. Apparently the users on this board are a little off track... being more concerned over whether a person has legal copies of their software rather than just helping everyone. Anyway, I do thank you all for your suggestions... but I just reformatted and did a fresh install... no more problems. So was just a driver conflict after all

Sorry for not giving enough information. All screensavers cause that problem... not just the open gl ones. My system: k62 333 not overclocked 128 megs ram voodoo 3 3000 agp with win2k drivers I am running win2k professional. My friends system is a P3 450 (??) which is not overclocked either.... he is also running win2k. Thanks for all your help so far...

When I had a basic S3 3d video card (8megs)agp I never had this problem, since installing a voodoo 3 3000 agp, whenever the screen saver kicks in my computer will freeze completely. There is nothing I can do but reboot (and when I do I have boot up problems). It is obviously the new video card, but a friend of mine has the exact same problem and he has a different video card (hercules prophet ddr). Is there a reason for this problem and is there a solution other than just turning the screen saver off (which I have done).

I have a voodoo 3 3000 agp and am using the win2k drivers, but when I try to use video out to tv I can not use my monitor with it. Is there anyway I can fix it so I can use the monitor as well as the tv with tv out? Also, it seems that no matter what my monitor resolution is, it will only send to tv at a maximum of 800X600 My system is: K62 333 128 megs ram voodoo 3 3000 agp etc.... Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Sorry, I should have put this in to begin with, but when I select to let me use my monitor with tv out... my monitor is all garbled and I can't see a thing.
