this is really strange.... i have a celeron633@950 on a bh6. i have been running with a tnt2-16mb for a pretty long time to i bought a gf2 3 days ago. now the strange thing is... when i play a 3d game my system totallt randomly hangs. the first thing to happen is my screen says there's no signal. [with a normal hang you would have the last made image] and the reset button still works.

even when i play mechwarrior4 and this happens my sound goes on... if i press esc i go into the menu.. en when i press the fire button i can hear shooting.

this has to be a hardware problem right? i never had the same problems with my trusty tnt2 and i was using the same drivers the last weeks. [6.49] plz help me out.... should i go back to the store and get a new one?

How did you install the drivers? Also get the 6.31 Detonators from nVidias site as th 6.49 aren't yet official, they're still beta, I think.

well/.... i set my driver to std.vga adaptor. and then installed them... like its supposed to

i'll be trying 6.31.. but i dont think its the drivers... my tnt2 worked great with 6.49

update: nope it wasnt the drivers. i tried hl-counterstrike but it hung up exactly the same way.
