    Post Combat Flight Sim 2 Crash with Prophet 3 HELP!

    My GF3 is running at an AGP bus of 89, but I have played COUNTLESS hours of Q3 (max details everything) and 3d mark 2001.. no crashing..

    Now it is unclocked BTW, I run Combat Flight sim, 5 min into it the sound cuts out, then graphics slwod won and it crashes, then I cant run any 3d apps till i reboot.

    BUT... I went back to an FSB of 100 to bring ym AGP down to 66 where it belongs, same thing, sound cuts otu and so on. I believe it isnt anything to do with my GF3 being clocked at an FSB of 89, it may be the drivers, the sound drivers (Santa Cruz)

    any ideas?

    It could be because of your overclocking too

    Are you getting bsod's w/memory errors ? Stuff like o/e error @ cfffff whatever ?
    CFS2 is a memory PIG, you may wish to try some vcache setting to resolve this, used to happen to me alot.
