Radeon AIW Help Please

I have a radeon AIW that I am using in my home theater computer. It works great, the Tv out is awesome, but the only problem is, it gets a ways into 3d games and programs (5-10 minutes) then randomly freezes. I've felt the HSF on the graphics processor and the HSF on the CPU and they are both cool to the touch. The All in wonder is using the newest drivers from ATI's site. The programs it crashes in are: 3dMark2001, NBA Live 2001, and a number of Nintendo 64 Emulators.

The computer is as follows:

800Mhz P3E Coppermine on Iwill Slocket 2
Win 98SE
DFI P2XBL Motherboard
256MB PC133 Crucial Cas3 RAM (Running at 100mhz Cas3)
AIW radeon 32MB DDR
Generic Aureal Vortex 1 Sound
Generic 10mbps NIC
80G Western Digital 800BB
Generic black faced CD-ROM, no floppy

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks!
 
More info.... when I freeze in 3DMark 2001, it is the Vertex Shader test that it freezes on... ( bunch of little guys in black coats shooting each other)
 
my all in one used to do the same thing

what refresh rate are you running? try 60 as thats default

what settings are you using try 800x600

set all to default

will it run now

if all else fails make sure card is all the way in agp slot

also you can try older drivers as not all drivers are compatible with all systems

at least mine arent

i had problems using 2 sets of downloaded drivers

when i got it working in all resolutions i did a two day burn in at max settings that was over
a year ago still works great .

every now and then i try a new driver from [L=here[/url] as ive had goo luck with their drivers so far over a year
