MSI K7T Pro Duron 650 Crash when play 3D games
My configuration:
MSI K7T Pro with AMD 650
MSI Geforce2 MX graphic card
Hyundai PC-133 256 Ram
Maxtor 15G and IBM 15G HD (Maxtor with Window98SE, IBM with Window2000)
Sony CDU 571 CD Rom and Mat****u CDRW-7585
Logitech Coreless Mouse
Macronix MX98715 Fast Ethernet Adapter
HCF PCI CXT1035 Internal Modem
All with the latest drivers
Problems:
1. It always hang when I play some 3D games (both using Window 98SE and Window 2K), e.g. The Typing of the Dead. For other application, it is normal.
2. There is 1 active partition on each HD, is it ok? (i.e. totally 2 active partitions on 2 HD)
3. When I leave my computer alone, the screen messes up after 10 mins and then hangs. What happens?
4. It sometimes restarts automatically.
5. Run CPU Stability Test by Jouni Vuorio, it crashes.
It seems there is something wrong with the graphic cards but I am not sure what happens. All 3D games works on my old Pentium system.
Thank you.

This is a very common problem with the Geforce2 cards and AMD machines in general. You probably have a VIA chipset on the motherboard, right? Go to VIA's website and intall their latest 4in1 drivers first to update the AGP driver stuff first. If it is still unstable, try changing the AGP from 4x to 2x in the bios... let me know how it goes.

I the power supply of sufficient wattage, and approved? (My 250 watt supply is by Enlight, and works fine on "old" Slot A 650 w/ GF2MX and 3 hard drives)
