Hi to all community,
i'm not sure that's the right place for my question... so i hope i havent touched any m@ss destructive button and, if i wrong something, pls tell me where i can readdress my post. I'm a happy student that bought the new computer for playing some games:
Pentium D 3 Ghz
2 Gb RAM
ATI X1650 Pro 512
Unfortuantely things went wrong and i'm *really* desperate. Any games crashes randomly after 5-10 min: the game freezes and then goes in "sleep mode" so i have to reboot. I'm not expert about computer technology but i've tried different things: (re)install lastest catalyst driver (ver 7.3), done a ramtest with Memtest (no errors) and looks for any advice on system. The only i found is in the EventViewer:
ATI2MTAG
ID Event 49170
MODE: GXO Execute BIOS Table Error
This error is followed by Advice:
ATI2MTAG
ID Event: 45063
CRT failed to execute AtomBios
Of course i dont know what its saying [emote|:-)] Can anyone help me? It is an hardware error? How can i discover the "hot" component? Or is it a software error its only to download the "magic" driver?
I really thanks you a lot,
Ll.

Sounds like there's a problem with the ATi video driver. Cyeck to see if there's an updated driver on ATi's site.
