The system has been giving me an error like this or just shuting down completely and rebooting by itself, mostley when playing opengl games. Have latest detonator drivers installed. any suggestions would be great.

You may have left out a piece of important information...but you wouldn't have known that. After the numbers in this error message it usually says somethng like "in VXD..." Here's an example:

A Fatal Exception 0E has occurred at 0028:XXXXXXXX in VXD SYMEvent(02)+XXXXXXXX.

By the way, if you have that specific error (VXD SYMEvent...) I can point you to a fix.
Otherwise, please print out the exact message.

Here's a general information article from Microsoft about Fatal Exceptions:

I was getting a similar error when playing Diablo 2. I'm guessing it had something to do with the 1.05b patch. After reinstalling the game and going back to 1.04b, I haven't had the crashes anymore.

I was using the 6.49 Detonator drivers.
