MY PROBLEMS SEEM TO BE SOLVED!

Just played without problems for about 2 hours, and the problem was that I had to:

"Disable "write combining" in xp (2000 as well?) under Display properties / advanced 
/ troubleshooting "

Got the sollution frome one of many possible ones on another forum.

It appears to work for now, ironic that an unchecked box can cause so much trouble 
n pain for the last year =)

There is a SLIM chance that my problems arent solved, and I was lucky for the 2 hour 
of gaming.. Time will tell and I will report, but for now, I seem to be a happy guy 
;)

Thnx for your replies!
