R Smith 0 Posted February 7, 2001 K heres something that will drive you nuts.. god knows its driving me nuts. I have a DELL Dimension XPS t600r. 256mdsram montegobay 2 sound card diamond viper v770d vid card Hp 9100 8x/4x/4x cdr I install windows 2000 and for no apparent reason it freezes and locks up on me.I thought i narrowed it down to the sound drivers.. but I couldnt get it to duplicate the problem. Anyone have any suggestions? I am as I know it up to date on all avaliable drivers.. video etc. Share this post Link to post
Kaiser 0 Posted February 9, 2001 Hi, I have a DELL too (XPS T550) and I too had random lockup probs with it for a while...In my case I narrowed it down to the version of NVidia video drivers I was using (games, apps and even the opsys would just lockup completely, focing me to reboot the system). I've since switched to the WHQL-certified 6.62 drivers and everything's working great since. Hope this of some use......... ------------------ My System: DELL XPS T550 (PIII @ 550 Mhz) 320MB PC-100 SDRAM DIMMs 9&12GB Maxtor IDE Hard Drives Toshiba 6x DVD-ROM Sony CRX-100E CD-RW Trust 10/100 Ethernet NIC USR 56K V90 Winmodem Hauppage WinTV Go!
