Hi i have been having this problem for a while i thought i fixed it when i found that one of my memory modules was broken but now even after i have removed the memory module i am still having the same problem when i play games the computer will freeze when i reboot it tells me that the problem has been caused by the device drivers for my Geforce 4 Ti 4800 SE however i have the newest drivers and even tried reinstalling them any ideas on what could be wrong? do i need to replace my video card? should i reinstall windows? or is something wrong with my mobo/cpu? thanks for your help!

what brand of Ram are you using?
Dual channel Intel boards are very picky about the quality and brand of ram you use.
Generic DDR ram will cause these issues. I only use Samsung brand DDR400 for all my
Intel 865PE builds and it works flawlessly.
