Radeon 64 DDR and win2k stability

[nemaNIN]

hey guys.

i got a radeon 64DDR VIVO running in win2k and directx8. i have the newest recomended drivers by ATI but im not completely happy w/ me stability. especially in alice. i get random locks, more frequently in alice, but also in quake3a and UT.

ive got an MSI-694d PRO w/ the most recent award bios. it has some video fast write and memory shadowing options that i havent touched yet. and i know there are alternate display drivers (some beta ones) out there.

im just looking for suggestions on what i can do to up my video stability.. or better yet.. if someone has a similar set up to mine and theres is stable, im looking for a details description of their set up (including bios options).
thanx. i really appreciate and infromation.
Neems

I don't know how much this will help you cause I'm running a older Asus P2B-LS with a Radeon 64Mb VIVO. But mine is rock steady in Quake III and UT with Win2K. Mine is OCed to 512Mhz (P3-450). I haven't tweaked anything (yet) attempting to achieve max stability first (which is soooooo much better than WinME). If I can help any more, let me know.
