ALl is pointing to the grafic card drivers or the card itself -- might try installing some older drivers - sometimes that works

that was going to be my next try. i did memtest, 6 passes, 0 errors. so my memory is doing great. i'll try updating to the newest drivers, then rolling back to the next earliest release.

i was playing counterstrike source again today, and did not get a chance to see the stop error, but it acted just like i got the same error again:

0x000000EA, THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER

and this was in the event viewer

system error
Error code 100000d1, parameter1 00000008, parameter2 00000007, parameter3 00000000, parameter4 f72bc817.

you knnow it sure seems like a overheat problem -- i remimber having the voodoo3d card and having to add fans to keep them cool. ??

[Moocat]

can't be overheating. i've checked my bios right after the crash, and hardware monitor reports temps on mobo and cpu both at around 40, fairly low.

I talking about the video card -- they over heat a lot

Do you think that's why the Fan on this here winders puter runs so much?

Yep-- Big bearings

i doubt the vid card is overheating, but if it is, i have no way of knowing...
