The previous card was a GF FX 5200, but I wiped the drive and reinstalled WinXP before I installed the 9800, so that should not be the cause.
Also, I've installed all new drivers, flashed the BIOS, added additional fans (2 in, 2 out), added additional heatsinks to the card, and spent an entire week un/reinstalling various Catalyst versions using the uninstall utility. :snip:
I've even disabled ACPI so I could change the IRQ settings, only to find that my MOBO still would not let me change the values manually, so I pulled out all PCI cards (lan, phone modem.) Still, it crashes with the new drivers.
