It also randomly freezes in freebsd with mplayer. I have tried the following: --------------------------- I tried installing the latest 4in1 driver version 4.3.36 from the Elitegroup website for windows I tried the PCI Latency 019 patch for windows I tried switching the video cards (another AGP) I don't know what to do to patch freebsd4.6 Nothing has worked, I get the same random freezing. The system is stable until I start doing disk or video intensive processing. Should I try to turn of DMA to see if that is the issue? How can I turn of DMA? Should I try to reinstall from scratch? Any suggestions?
