I recently installed a Gainward GF4 TI4400 with dual display setup and i'm lovin it. however, after a while it tends to just crap out on me (it just freezes, not even ctrl+alt+del works). any ideas why??

fyi- the second monitor is an old one i had lying and it's power supply plugs into the back of the PC so mebe it's a power problem.

Power problem is a most excellent guess, throw it out and buy a new monitor=-) a GeForce 4 requires a minimum of a 300Watt power supply, 350 or greater is recommended for most PC's that people here would have.
