I am running a 1.8mhz athlon with a new 80gb hard drive
with windows 98se. Up until recently I was running the
same system with XP. I had the need to install the latest
driver for my hercules 64mb tv out graphics card and
direct x 9 to play Tiger Woods PGA 2003. Thats when my
problems started. The game kept crashing during game play
and then the PC started to crash and got gradually worse
until the pc would not get past the start up screen. To
cut a long story short I installed a new power unit and
new hard drive and tried to install XP from scratch. It
would get so far and then blue screen to save damage to
the pc and inform me to remove any new hardware fitted. I
tried again but with the same result. I then changed the
graphics card to a msi mx440 64mb tv out. I then installed
windows 98se with no problems and suspected that the
problem had been the graphics card. I then installed Tiger
Woods pga again which installs direct x 9 and tells you
too get the latest drivers for the graphics card, which I
did. Thats when the problems started again. Exactly the
same as before. Cinsidering I have fitted a new hard drive
and power unit and changed the graphics card, could it
possibly be the motherboard. PLEASE HELP.
