My system configuration is
AMD athlon64 3000+ 939 pin processor
MSI RS 480 pci-express Ati express200 chipset motherboard
XFX GeForce 6600GT PCI-express 128MB
1024MB DDR400 zion RAM(2*512MB)
120GB SEAGATE BARRACUDA IDE HDD
LG STUDIOWORKS 700E MONITOR
NVIDIA FORCEWARE DRIVER 71.89
400 watts COLORSIT SMPS
600 VA SERENE UPS
WINDOWS XP -NO SERVICE PACK INSTALLED.
DIRECTX 9.0C
THE PROBLEM IS GAMES OFTEN FREEZE WHILE PLAYING AND MOST OF THE TIME THE SYSTEM
GETS RESTARTED GIVING THE ERROR MESSAGE THAT "THE DISPLAY DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO COMPLETE THE
DRAWING oPERATION . THIS MAY BE DUE TO DRIVER INSTABILITY."MY ORIGINAL 66 VERSION DRIVER
ALSO GAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. EVEN THE DIRECT3D TEST ON DIRECTX TEST RESULTS SOMETIMES IN A
FREEZING CUBE. when i took out the card, the problem remained,but it froze much less frequently.I have tested the ram by memtest86 by putting one chip at a time. the smps gives 10A on 12V, 12A on 5V,and 13A on 3.3V line. I thought it might be a psu problem,and i called up the MSI folks,but they said that the motherboards sold work perfectly on the available SMPS.this Geforce card is a replacement,the previous card was burnt the day it was bought. I am at my wit's end.PLEASE GUIDE ME WHAT TO DO?
