    Question ATI 9700 Pro - Problems??

    Hi
    Hope you can help

    I have recently started playing The Matrix Online, this is relevant by the way, and this is the only game I get the following happen.

    After about 20mins of playing or so I get the following Windowed error

    ""VPU Recover Has reset your graphics accelerator as it was no longer responding to graphics driver commands"
    This is in a window with the Send Error Report etc.......


    The game doesnt crash, it just minimizes and then I can click "Dont Send", maximise the game and carry on!! weird

    I bought the card about 8 weeks ago and have no probs with Doom 3or Far Cry.

    My machine specs are as follows

    Dell Dimension 4400

    P4 2.0ghz
    1gb Ram DDR 2100 Crucial
    60gb Seagate Barracuda
    80gb Seagate Barracuda
    CD/RW DVD Combi Drive
    CDRom Drive
    Floppy Drive
    Phillips 17" TFT

    Dell standard soundcard
    Dell PSU (250w I think)

    The 9700 card needs it own molex power supply which I had to nab from the floppy drive. The Dell PSU only has one such connector coming from it.

    Do you think I have a power issue here or is it driver related?

    Thanks for any help

    disable vpu recovery in your display settings.
