All,
my CMAK games often crash in the midst of a scenario. I briefly see a blue
screen with white text on it (noticed the word 'driver'), and then my PC reboots.
I play on a notebook with an ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 card. Driver version is 6.13.10.6200. I have Windows XP with service pack 1 installed. The crash occurs both with and without other applications running in the background (online client, firewall, browser), even after a fresh reboot.
Is anybody able to help?
Thanks,
Wespe

This definitely sounds like a problem with the driver itself. What laptop brand and model do you have and where did you get the driver ?

You may want to experiment with whatever settings are offered in the Display control panel for '3D' and/or DirectX. Are you using a 'tweaking' program for your ATI video ? You may need to experiment with that and possibly set the settings back to a default.
