Just a shot in the dark here, but you might want to try adjusting your AGP
ram settings. Usually that's in the motherboard bios. Another option would
be trying it in OpenGL and then if that works go back and try DX again.

Another shot in the dark -- I had the exact same problem using a Radeon
8500LE. I solved it by disabling all videocard overclocking during the
graphics configuration. (Note: This solved the problem in D3D, but mine
still freezes when configuring OpenGL). After configuration is completed,
you can again overclock.
Hope this helps....

have a via266 chipset? I read on another forum of people installing the
latest 4-1 drivers and fixing it but that did not work for me so far i have
installed dx9 and 4-1 drivers only thing left is video drivers but I dont
think that will help either Mine gets to 218 textures before it locks up in
d3d and opengl
video card is geforce3 ti 200 128mb with 30.82 drivers
amd 1800
512 pc2100 ram
epox 8kha+ motherboard w/ via266 chipset now with 4.42 drivers

see if that works
