Great thread! Make sure you have enough airflow in your case. Overheating can cause all sorts of weird problems. --- |

Have to disagree here. Don't cheap out on the power supply. A bad PSU can fry everything. |

This. So much this. Just upgrade to Windows 2000 if you're having stability issues. Way better than ME. --- |

Total beginner here — Reseat the card and the cables. Half the time that fixes weird issues. |
