Make sure you have the latest Nvidia driver (currently 1.0.7174). The 7167 driver specifically states that it fixes stablility problems on the PCI-Express interface.
PCI-Express (x16) is replacing AGP as the graphics interface - 4 GB/sec full duplex communication

Can help improve things like using the graphics card as a coprocessor (GPGPU)...

Thanks Kevin. I do have the 7174 version of the nvidia driver installed. I'm considering trying the 7167, only out of desperation. Still trying all sorts of other things - options to the kernel, options to the nvidia driver, etc... So AGP will become less significant? -Ken -- Ken Siersma, Software Engineer EKK, Inc. phone: (248) 624-9957 fax: (248) 624-7158 http://www.ekkinc.com -- "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." -MLK Jr.
