Is this the wrong board to ask MB Q's? by vetitice 2004-04-12 18:07:23
Got an MSI K7N2G, latest drivers from Nvidia for all devices and on-board graphics (Nforce4 MX).

Athlon 2600+, 1G RAM (tested overnight) Hitiachi Deathstar HD, and PCI cards for firewire, Video Capture and win modem. WinXP home, installed yesterday, fully Windows Updated.

DirectX and OpenGL games just crash to desktop, usually with no errors.

Not that I play many games, but I'd like to get through one game of Scorched 3D on any graphics setting.

Anyone got any ideas?
