    It's not a driver issue then?

    My games used to crash in crysis like this, and it was RAM. I took the sticks out to test them. They started of as 4gb, but i confirmed 2 sticks to be dead afterwards, and my mobo is only reading 1 stick atm. So yes, I'm running vista on 1gb of RAM. Lovely.

    Run memtest overnight to try diff RAM.
