page faults gpl\naz99

Getting a lot of page faults with some games. I am using two V2 Blackmagic cards with the stealth coolers on each. Now after Falcon 4.0 crashed on me I cannot even run GPL or N1999, they both crash with a page fault. Will not even startup. I have re-installed both but no luck. I have re-installed my V2 drivers, Thriller drivers, uninstalled DX6 and re-installed. ***2 runs good, I get an occasional freeze, Unreal runs good but eventually breaks. Sin's good, Falcon runs fairly well but eventually page faults. I have an ABIT BH6 with the SL2W8 running at 450. No cards are overclocked and I have 9 fans running including the two stealths. Current case temp is running at 86. Do not think heat is the problem or my power supply (300w). Also running Win98. Any suggestions on what might be causing the game crashes? More system info: Voodoo2 3DFX ref drivers with glide 2.54 SBLive current drivers Thriller drivers from the CD Microsoft DX6.0 Thanks Rick

IF it workeed at one time and now doesn't......reformat reinstall is the only thing that fixed it for me. I kept getting faults thougha dn what it was, was my Barnd X PC100 memory. 128 megs of Corsair memory solved ALL the problems that I had with GPL and Falcon crashing. Bob

Urghhh!

> Any suggestions on what might be causing the game crashes? You might want to try upping your CPU core voltage. I was seeing the same sort of thing until I increased it by 0.1. I have a very well-cooled box, so heat wasn't a problem. Now the only crashes I get are when I have off-track excursions.. :) -- Neil Yeatman Ajax, Ontario, CANADA

Whats confusing is I use Rendition for GPL and 3DFX for Nascar99. Neither will run get page faults. All other games are running fine now.
