Re: Game crashes; computer resets
what do you mean by .ini file being changed to 255? I have the same problem, but it's with a brand new video card..... So far it only does the acid graphics, and freeze up in NWN2, and rarely now and again in Sims. Again though, it's a new graphics card. Maybe this .ini file might be my problem? How...

Re: NVIDIA 8500 GT
So.....I went and got an ATI 2500PRO Viper. Anyone know anything about this card? Seems to work pretty good.
At the very least my problems went away, and it means it was indeed the card.
Thanks for all the help guys. Now as soon as I get my new house connected to the web, I'll be back on.

Re: NVIDIA 8500 GT
300w power supply is all that is recommended by the manufacturer.....so 500w will do. Leaves me one last prospect.....
What does a .38 Special 2 shot berringer do to a video card? I dunno, but I'm gonna find out....

Re: NVIDIA 8500 GT
Pretty proof positive that it isn't that. The reason being, is I took one of my old video cards...PCI-ex 128mb, and was using it for about two weeks, before I bought the new card. No troubles there. Thanks though. :) Still wondering about PSU amperage? And do to unreliable lackies, I the manager, am...

Re: NVIDIA 8500 GT
I'm gonna do a clean sweep on the hard drive, and a new rebuild of software, as well as reseating the card tomorrow. I'll holler if that doesn't work. I also saw some where, that even though it's a 500w PSU, there is a possibility that it doesn't push enough amps to support the card? Anyway I can fi...

Re: NVIDIA 8500 GT
Can't find a power point any where on it. Don't think it has one. Really wish it did, as I remember one video card a few years ago, it was ~exactly~ that problem. I'll have to try re-seating it later, as I'm not in front of my PC right now. Where can I find older versions of Nvidia drivers? The Nvid...

NVIDIA 8500 GT
Okie, So here's the deal. I had an NVIDIA 6500 256mb, and the ball bearings in the fan that cooled the gpu went out, and thus eventually the fan died, and thus eventually the 6500 went kaputz. Soooo......I took out the NVIDIA, and in went the ATI Radeon 300 Xtreme 128mb, which is an older card I had...
