You can add me to the list of users who's machine crashes with XP SP2.  I
get the blue screen of death (BSD) with my machine.  The blue screen states
that it is my ATI card that is causing the crash.  I checked, and I have the
latest drivers installed.  In fact, I just reformatted my machine and
installed everything new.  Any ideas of what I can do?  I hate toggling
things to test and then restart FG as I am constantly getting the BSD.  Am I
to never play FG again :-(.

Please help :-).

My Specs are:

OS:     WinXP SP2
RAM:    512 MB
Video:  ATI Mobility M4
       Bus Type: AGP 1X, 2X, 4X
       16MB SDR SGRAM
Sound:  ESS Maestro PCI

Thanks a lot in advance.



Seth,

On today's "modern" operating systems, I can confidently say that if you experience the "blue screen of death" or a "kernel panic" running an software application (such as FlightGear), there is a bug in the operating system, one of your drivers, or perhaps you have hardware problems.

I'm guessing you are trying to run this on a laptop, but unfortunately, many laptops do not come with sufficient video hardware to run FlightGear ... it could be that you are running out of video ram and your video drivers aren't handling that correctly?

An application shouldn't be able to crash your operating system these days ...

Curt.
