HELLO,
I have this comp & tried to run games on it, such as : "Delta Force Extreem"-The comp stuck,then I installed the sgame "Rome Total War" and it runs perfectly. Then I installed "Medal of Honor PA" & the comp stuck again.
I went to the Fujitsu-siemens site and did a driver check -everithing looks fine.
I know for sure that the problem is with the Radeon 9200, just dont know what.

Although you have already done a driver check, use the program "DriverCleaner Professional Edition" to completely eradicate your current driver install. There are instructions in the program's help file that guide you through the process, step-by-step.

Once that's done, download and install a different driver version according to the DriverCleaner instructions. After you're done rebooting and what not, try running the games again.

If the games still don't work, make sure that your system isn't running too hot.

It wouldn't hurt to do a virus scan and a spyware scan if you haven't in a while, since shady programs can definitely cause lockups.

If none of this works, try opening your computer and reseating everything. Check your Radeon 9200 and make sure it doesn't have a regional jumper, and if it does, ensure that it's on NTSC. Go into your BIOS, reset everything to default, and try that, too.

Hopefully, one of these things will fix the problem for you.
