I've got a TON of these error messages in Event Viewer. I a hoping it is the reason why I see so many artifacts with my 8500 64MB and its not a hardware problem and this is why many of my games crash at 1024x768 and above.

Isn't the True Vector engine a service of ZoneAlarm? The "Internet Logs" path seems to point to that but I don't know why it would corrupt itself so often. Yeah ZA flakes on me when I crash and it doesn't close gracefully but a restart and nuke of the log file fixes things right up.

Well, I guess an un- and reinstall of ZoneAlarm couldn't make things worse so I'd give that a shot before anything else.
