    It may be because of two bugs. It will be fixed in beta 5. One of them is ns_lost, which crashes people. The other one I can't say. Avoid playing ns_lost for now.

    Try doing a repair installation of Windows XP. I have the same problem right now w/ my computer (the specs are a bit different though <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->) and that's what I'm going to do this weekend. I'll let you know if it resolves my problem.

    I'm also thinking it could be a cooling issue.

    Well the other bug can happen on any map but if it happens all the time then it must not be the bug.

    I've got the same issues, and got the same video card exept mine is saphire. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->
    I haven't fixed it yet but i've downloaded the newest omega drivers and it helps a bit. Now i can actually play a single game before it crashes <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    hope the problem will be solved after the next update.
    hope i helped a bit.

    Later,
