Asus A7V-133 and Win2K freezups: Where to start?
The normal way is: Leave the PC running for a week, play some MP3s and randomly adjust volume: it's a 99.9% chance system will lock up (see below). The brutal way is: - Play an MP3 using Media Player 6.4 (_not_ Winamp, here it always works). - Wildly move the volume slider up and down: sometimes it only takes 30

Some of these 3D screensavers will unexpectedly lock up my system---and I mean *completely* lock up my system, can't ctrl-alt-f[1-6] to switch to a text console, I can't kill X with ctrl-alt-backspace, etc. Nothing works.
