Freeze up

how can you tell if its the videocard causing the freeze up.
It happens when playing warcraft3. only game it happens i get the blue
screen and have to reboot. I can play NFS HP2 and underground with no
problems. also happens somtimes when i have too many windows open. Is this
even a video card problem.
TIA

sys specs
1.7 celeron. via chipset, i know ewww
256 ddr 266
saphire 9100 128 with cat 3.9.

Ill try going back to 3.8omega, it started happenining about the same time
but i doubt thats it

I would put it down to either your drivers or the game Warcraft 3 itself,
have you tried obtaining a game patch for warcraft 3? If you can play NFS
underground with no lockups i would say your system is very stable as this
is graphic intensive so no way i can see your video card the cause.

Later.

Go back to omega 3.7 - catalyst 3.8 is prone to similar problems as 3.9
