Hi , Just got a 9100 the other day , as an upgrade to my old geforce 2 32meg , and another stick of 256MB Ram (pc133). After some probelms with it ealry on due to a problem with the power supply being too weak i finally got up and running . I had uninstalled the drievrs from my Nvidia card through add/remove programs before installing , and installled my new card and the 3.4 catalyst drivers . After i had installed everything I went to play warcraft 3 , I got about 10 minutes into a game when I crash to desktop with this Error (not exact but almost) :
Fatal Error!
Program: C:\Programfiles\Warcraft3\war3.exe
Exception 0xC000005(access violation) at 001B:6F008863
The Instruction at 0xF08B83 referenced memory at 0x9A6DFCb0
The memory could not be 'read'
I kinda brushed it off , figuring it could be just a fluke or something , so I started it up again and got the same message after about 20 mins .
After that I decided to play some planetside beta , also this time crashed to desk as game was loading(this could be because its beta) no error message .Played a few other games , all of which crashed to desk or bluescreened with the message :
The Problem has been caused by the file : Ati3d2ag.dll
Page Fault in nonpaged area
So I was kinda irritated and went to a different sight and saw a post about "foolproof uninstall/install guide" and I followed the directions there (deleting stuff in registry and some other files aftyer uninstall . Installed the drivers that came with the disk this time (cat 3.2) , played WC3 for about an hour without any crashes . Then Logged onto Everquest , after about 2 hours , I got dropped to desktop with no error message , logged back on , got dropped immediately . Played WC3 again today for about 2 hours , got a blue screen with the error :
The Problem has been caused by the file : Ati3d2ag.dll
Page Fault in nonpaged area
Again , played another hour with no errors , but came here to make this post .
Ive been told it sounds like a memory problem from a person or 2 , another said i should reformat , another said reinstall the drivers (ive done this several times now) , any ideas what to do?
System Specs are :
Athlon 1.1 ghz processor
Kt133 Motherboard
Maxtor 30 gig HD
768 MB SDRAM (pc133)
9100 Radeon card
SBlive xgamer soundcard
Also , ive been running DX 9.0 , and then 9.0a
P.S. Im sorry if this is the wrong forum for this question . if so just tell me .
