Hi,
I recently purchased the parts to build a new computer and all went fine untill i tried to run a Direct 3D game, all Direct 3D games lock-up. If i run them in software they work but the graphics are crap obviously. So i thought the problem would be the video card i took out the Geforce 3 Ti200 and put in my friends Geforce 4 Ti4400 but it wouldnt let me install the dirvers and i had all kinds of graphical glithces happening. So I decided to put the Geforce 3 Ti200 in my friends computer to see if it locked up and it didn't. Therefore I believe this rules out the Video-Card and can only leave the motherboard responsible.
Here are my system Specifications.
AMD Atlhon XP 2000+
Gigabyte GA-7VRXP
256MB Kingmax DDR333
Onboard Network/Sound/Raid.
Ge-Force 4 Ti4400.
Swansmart Internal Modem.
Pioneer 16x40x DVD-ROm.
Yamaha 24x8x8x CD-Burner (Kept from old computer)
Any help appreciated.
I can only think it is a dodgy motherboard, i only purchased these itmes recently so they are still under warranty to return.
