Well, I just got an Asus EN9600GT 2 days ago to play Age of Conan.
the card worked perfectly the first day, (same could be said for Age of Conan, but that's another thread)
Next day, I try out LOTRO, after an hour of game play, the screen froze (sound still works), and the only way out is hard reset. I don't think it is a temperature issue since it is running stock and i can play the game after the reboot for 30 minutes or more.
I was going to blame LOTRO, but it is happening with Conan today. random lock up that can only be resolved with hard reset.
update to the latest driver didn't help
game crashes regardless of what setting (high, medium, low) and sometimes is within minutes after running the game, other times (rarely) 30+ minutes.
i'm getting ready to chuck this thing out of the window.... and go back to my back up cheapo 8500gt that works. anyone having the same issue?
looks like it is a common problem with 9600 GT:

I'm running on vista ultimate 64,
screen lock up in AOC (all settings), LOTRO (both dx9c and dx10) and once while i was looking at the temperature setting in windows.
