Installed a new Gladiac GTS but have been unable to run games or Benchmark 2000. Seems as soon as card switches into 3d mode it locks up system tight. This card replaced a Diamond Tnt2 Ultra which works flawlessly. I tried both the included Elsa drivers and Nvidia reference 647.
Here's the system
566 celeron @ 850 - I tried it at 566 but still freezes
Abit Bh6
256MB
Diamond MX 300
2 Diamond V2's SLI
13 GB WD
8.4 GB Maxtor
Yamaha CDRW
Memorex 48x cd
Diamond ISA hardware modem

Anyone have similiar problems or see possible conflicts with system components? Thanks!

I had the same problem. I updated the BIOS and I haven't had the problem again...yet. I'm hoping this fixed it. You can get the BIOS and utilities from www.Elsa.com

happy gaming!

pledge38,
Thanks for your reply. I could try that, but would it void the warranty?

No, it won't void the warranty, they want you to update the BIOS because it's just stuff that they didn't know about at release. And updating the BIOS didn't work for me afterall, but it's still worth a shot.

My computer still freezes up after 45 minutes of playing Counter-Strike.

good luck!
