video card probs...

[vishal]

when i try to play quake 3 or kingpin i crash...

the server loads but when i press a key the games just crash.. i have to press spacebar to get back into windows..

i have a p3 450, 128mb ram, maxi xentor tnt2 ultra... i'm running the xentor drivers right now.. but they crash with the nvidia drivers also...

this just started happening a couple days ago.

how can i fix this problem?

Try un-installing all video drivers for your card then removing it and change your display adapter to Win standard super VGA(check driver download sites on how-to). Check Nvidia sites to see which driver set is best for your card, download them and "point" Windows to them (inf. file) when you change your adapter. Good Luck!

vishal,

In your post, you state that the games crash right after the server loads. Is this only a problem when playing multiplayer, or do the games crash when playing in single player also?
