ok so...i recently formatted my HD, converted it to NTFS and reinstalled a fresh copy of WinXP Pro + SP1
as soon as i had XP installed i began installing software and updating drivers.
i have 2 video cards (one which i dont use, nVidia TNT2) and the latter being a Radeon 7000 64MB which i've had for
awhile and never had problems, so now here is the problem. on my new system, whenever i run ANY 3d application, be a screensaver or game
the applciation will freeze my computer and after like 5seconds just crash and restart my system!
i tried lowering the hardware acceleration to no success
help would be GREATLY appreciated
