i moved my 3870x2 to another machine when i upgraded to a 9800gx2. it's on an as p35 chipset board with a q9450, 4GB PC1066 memory, asus 850watt, vista x64. i'm having a problem whenever this machine runs ANY type of game that uses 3d, after about 10 minutes, the screen blanks out. i'm no longer getting any video signal at all. i can hear everything in the background and the music is still playing, but can't see anything. control alt del does nothing, alt tab, nothing works. i have to completely power it off and power it back on. there's nothing in event viewer anywhere about anything crashing. it happens when i run ANY game too. anything from diablo, to crysis. it was just running cod4 for about 10 minutes, and it happened again.
i should also mention, this machine used to have an 8800GTX in it and all of the old drivers were removed before putting in the x2.
