Hi, since the begging of the week my g200 has been doing some odd things. It seems to be crashing Windows when ever i browsing the web. I know it is cause when it gets to the last message i see something mentioning a failuer in the G200.DRV so i only assume its the g200 v/c. Also i have seen just a few times my computer would just freeze (well not the mouse and keyboard, as i can move the mouse and still alt+ctrl+del out) And tonight i just started see a even weirder problem, Windows would get all garbled looking. Everything still functions, but just... well messed up looking. All this started at the begging of the week and i first thought i could fix it by reinstalling Windows. However, that didnt work and considering im gona be buying a Geforce2 MX this weekend i shouldnt be worried, but i figure i should figure wether my card went bad or something. Also as i said this just all of a suddem happen after the card ran perfect for long, long time. Thanks.

System specs that i think might be factor:

Tbird 750
Asus A7V
128meg PC-100 RAM
 
Try installing the latest driver for the motherboard. If it uses the VIA chipset, then you will need the 4 in 1 driver. I had alot of problems with Matrox G200 Video card with AMD K6-2 Motherboard. I had to play around with several versions of the Video card and the AGP port driver in order get it working correctly.
