Hello, yes I'm back. This time I've truly found the problem and I've narrowed
it down much more for you guys.
Recently I had to reinstall Windows XP, so I did so. But I was having
troubles with the internet and couldn't figure it out so I started playing
some games (with no sound and the video drivers that must've came with
WinXP). No crashing. Nothing. I played a full game of WH40KoW, where
usually I'd crash midway through or near the end. Plus I played the full demo
scenario of Evil Genius, which would also crash midway through or near the
end.
Then I got the internet fixed (I really just reinstalled Windows XP again
and it worked), then updated my drivers. And guess what? Crashes started
occuring again. I think the problem is quite obvious once I went through
this. The drivers are screwing up somewhere between the uninstallation of the
old drivers, to the installation of the new ones. BUT I am following the
instructions flawlessly, of course, so I am unsure of how it is doing so.
Would anybody like to venture a solution please? It'd be really helpful.
