I'm curious what is the normal/acceptable operating temperatures for these video cards. I have a leadtek geforce 2 pro and the hardware monitor says the chip surface is running at 51 to over 60c. My system locks up whenever I'm playing games that makes the video card work. I was wondering if it is the video card getting too hot.

Currently while surfing the web. The room temperature is approx 24c the system cast temperature is 26c and my cpu temperature is 35c.

the temp is fine.
please give us your system specs only then we can help.
most important is the chipset(and MB manufacturer) and the driver version you are using. if you are using the drivers you recivied from leadtek then this is you problem. go with 6.72/6.50. hope i was any help.

The following are the specs:

amd athlon 1.2ghz/266
dfi ak76-sn (amd 761 chipset) mb
256mb pc2100 ddr
40gb ibm 60gxp hd
sound blaster live x-gamer
leadtek winfast geforce 2 pro 32mb
3com 3c905c 10/100 nic

and yes i've been using the drivers that came with the leadtek board should i just download the reference drivers from nvidia and remove all of the leadtek software or just the leadtek drivers?
