    Defrag issue.

    Thank you Linney for the reply, I appreciate your help. I ran both but neither seemed to fix the issue. Running regsvr32 fixed the error message but when I click on WinXp's defrag utility it instead sends me to the management console with an action canceled screen. Would there be a way to...

    Defrag issue.

    M830lr Geforce 3 ti500 lockup issue...:(

    No the ram is ok, I was amazed to find that it actually fixed the problem. A cool guy on another board suggested it and it worked, he mentioned certain boards have issues with using 2 133 sticks. My board lists in Sandra as an ECS board so I'll probably skip flashing it for a while to do a bit...

    M830lr Geforce 3 ti500 lockup issue...:(

    It turned out to be an issue with running two sticks of 133 ram, everything is going good now after removing one of them. Im not sure about the chipset drivers... could you post a link to them please? Are they on the Pcchips site?

    M830lr Geforce 3 ti500 lockup issue...:(

    Im using a recently purchased Visiontek Geforce3 ti500, My mainboard is a Pcchips M830LR. Everytime I play a game whether it be opengl or directx I get about 5 minutes of play in and suddenly the pc freezes and I hear a huge continuous static noise of some kind. I have tried using older drivers...
