316305 2005-01-21 21:42:00 Generally speaking I know my way round the BIOS but tend to require help on bits outside my experience. My forte tends to be software rather than hardware but I cope with most things and, even on hardware, have a much higher knowledge than the average user.

I did make one change to the BIOS. Graphics was shown as PCI bus and I changed it to AGP (to see what would happen) then ran the thing for half an hour or so and it didn't crash.

As it seemed to be working OK I went off to research AGP but am still not a lot wiser.

Will try Him Who Likes Games on it this evening and see if I have accidentally fixed the problem (or not). Will still try the memtest later today.

The only change was the BIOS setting.

Thanks for the help.
