Hey, my friends computer is freezing a lot! even after a fresh format. He is running a:
MS8308D/E motherboard with a SIS 730S chipset
AMD Duron 1.1ghz
320pc-100-133?RAM
Geforce 3 64mb
400watt PSU, newly bought
7200 rpm 8 mb cache IDE/ATA interface Ultra ATA compatible Ultra ATA/100 (brand new as well)

When he takes out the Geforce 3 and runs the integrated video, he rarely freezes. With the geforce in he freezes while surfing the web, and while playing just about any game (we've tested about 10 games)Everything freezes!

I dont know if this is the video card or what. We were thinking that the AGP expansion slot had something to do with it freezing with the GF 3 in. In the mobo booklet it says that the AGP slot is AGP 2.0 compliant, I have no idea what this means but im sure you do. Yes we have tested the Gf3 in my computer and it works fine.

IF you need any more info JUST ASK ME ill see what I can do! Thanks in advance!
