Problem with 3DMark05?

[Shadmere]

When I attempt to run 3dMark05, it errors out. When I click 'Run 3dMark' it flashes my screen black and then goes back to the desktop.

There are two error messages. One from 'epunsydima' that says, "Unable to write to F:\Program Files\EPoX\EPTP\TYPE13-1.INI."

Another from '3DMark05.' It says, "IDirect3DDevice9resent failed: Device lost (D3DERR_DEVICELOST)"

Just so you know: My Windows is installed on a partition called "F." I've ran 3DMark05 on this computer before fine; but now it won't run.

I uninstalled it, rebooted, and reinstalled it. Same two errors. I uninstalled my videocard drivers, rebooted, and reinstalled the latest version.

I can't figure out what's wrong. Quake4 demo runs fine. World of Warcraft runs fine. But I can't figure out why 3DMark05 won't start.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Do you have your computer overclocked? my computer passed the prime95 test just fine for 12 hours but crapped up in 3dmark05. had to lower the speed.

No, I don't have anything overclocked.
