I have an Epox 8k7a+ board, it's dated sure, still running an amd2000xp chip, am looking forward to jumping on an amd64 system (dual core) w/ pcie video, but in the meantime not too long ago I upgraded my video card from an ati 8500 to an nvidia 5500 (pny) card.  the benchmarks all came back w/ stellar results, but for some odd reason whenever I load a game (wolfet) it just crashes after a few minutes of gameplay, similar symptoms as what was earlier described, first I thought the 5500 is a crap card, so I"ll just go out and get a diffrent one, went out picked up a 6200, still same results.  I returned the 6200, and since i've had the 5500 for some time, I have decided that I'll just pick up an ATI card for my new amd system that I will have completed sometime in august.  I can wait till then to resume gameing ;). 

the onboard memory on the card is 128, and that's what I set the apture size for. (btw).

And how does one figure that out?
