<div class="IPBDescription">Nvidia</div>I have a Geforce2 GTS. Ever since I got the new detonator with openGL support(about 5 months ago) I can't run anything demanding on my computer without it BSODing (critical stop). I am a tech wiz and I can not figure out for the life of me why my drivers hate me. I have tried four fferent drivers, but to the same effect. The more demanding the game, the faster it crashes.

America's Army
Battlefield 1942
Half-Life

These are the most Crash-Prone games i run, AA being the most and Half-Life the least. I can <b>TOTALLY MAX OUT THE SETTINGS</b> in <u>Quake 3</u> and it will <b>never</b> crash. What's the dilly yo?

    If you're using Win9x, try using GLSetup for drivers.

    If you're using Win2k/XP, use the rollback feature to go back to your old, functional drivers.

    here's a pic of the rollback.

    i recommend you make sure the card is still properly seated in the agp slot. especailly if you moved the computer. you'd be suprised how often those things partially pop out...

    also check your agp apeture (i know i didn't spell that right...) settings.

    [edit]
    err, i guess i should tell you how i got there huh? heh.

    -go to control panel
    -SYSTEM
    -hardware tab
    -device mangler
    -display adapters
    -Nvidia Geforce 2 GTS (or whatever)
    -driver tab
