I was wondering if anyone else has been having issues with Radeon drivers in win2k? I just upgraded from a Diamond Banshee and having been getting lockups and blackouts of my video every couple of days. In these instances I really wasn't doing anything but browsing the web or working with Photoshop. No blue screen messages either, just a system lockup. Also running 3DMark will consistently lockup my system. The reason why this concerns me is that previously my system was as stable as could be. It never, ever, ever, ever crashed, locked up, or blue screened no matter how hard I punished it. It would run for weeks without needing a restart. So, since stability is by far the most important attribute of a system to me, I am so far very disappointed with my Radeon.
I guess I am asking if people have been experiencing similar things with their Radeons, or if someone has any ideas what I could do to shore up the stability of my system. I am currently running the WHQL certified 5.0.3052 drivers under a clean install with all the latest Via 4 in 1's. The rest of my system config is in my signature.
Thanks for any suggestions or tales of similar problems.:disgust:
