Wxp, Radeon 9500 Pro Issues
hey i need help please, wxp, athlonxp 2100+ 512mb pc2700, sapphire radeon 9500 pro, i cant play most games for over 10 mins without a crash. screen freezes and monitor turns off, then turns back on, corrupt images on screen and a weird sound comes from speakers...
sometimes VPU recover kicks in but it says i have to reboot anyway. ive tried ALL recent driver sets and the most stable is the old 3.xx series... im not sure what other info to give... ive tried everything short of a reformat... new nforce2 drivers, new audigy drivers, new video (omega, regular) nothing seems to help thanks!

ah i knew i forgot something!
well off the top of my head im not sure, it came with my Turbo Gamer X-Pider Case but i looked it up on ncix.com where i bought it and it doesnt say what the PSU is... i know its rated at 450W but i remember the brand name sounded cheap (but then again "turbo gamer" sounds kinda cheap to me and they make great cases  )either way if theres a chance its the PSU ill believe it... ive been meaning to upgrade it but i could never bring myself to spend 180 canadian on a 480W enermax when i could get a set of 5.1 speakers for less than half the price
