ok bit of an annoying problem here
pc specifications:
Abit KG7-raid
AMD Athlon 1700+ at 2.0ghz
512mb ram
gainward ti4200
sound blaster live!
10/100 lan card
60gb maxtor diamonmax hardrive
dvd drive
so heres my problem
yesterday I installed windows 2003, set up all the nice themes and skins, it was looking all great i had these nVidia drivers installed
i tried to play battlefield vietnam (no patch or anything, straight out of box) it loaded up fine then got into the game and after about 1-25 seconds it just crashed to desktop
which sucked, i tried many times - i thought it may just be bfv playing up
so i gave command and conquer generals a whirl, after about 1 sec - 40 secs it crashed to desktop also, but said 'sorry, a serious error occured' this time
slightly annoyed i decided to install some back catalogue drivers, 45.23 to be specific
pretty much the exact same thing happened
so i decided to see if i could get it any better with omega drivers, they seem pretty cool
however no luck, this time it simply mem dumped when ever it had finished loading the game on vietnam and generals
so as a last resort i thought 'it must be win2k3'
i now have win2k installed with the same probs coming at me, i currently have 45.23 installed having tried the latest ones.
oh and it isnt my gpu because i tried an old mx440 and the same things happened
please guys can i have some of your expertise?
