i have the asus a7n8x-e and a 9600 xt and i am also getting blue screen restarts. I run xp so it is not as simple as go back to windows 2000. anyways for a long time i thought it was the processor getting to hot but i have checked temps on it several times and it is fine. I also put my old radeon 7500 in my computer and had no issues. So far the blue screen restart only happens when playing bf1942 and other mods for it. (It is not the install!!) So is this a defective card or just a peice of shit. Any intelligent opinions would be greatly appreciated.
system stats:
a7n8x-e
2 chips of exactly same 512 ddr 2700 ram
2500+ processor
radeon 9600 xt
SATA barracuda hard drive
I also have customized my case for optimal airflow with several fans. cpu runs around 59c on average and case is 28c on average
I did have one interesting problem too. When i used Sandra to benchmark my machine it said that my processor fan is only runnin 922rpm ....but my bios says over 4000. Hmmmmmm??
