Hi Tit,      (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

My system is almost Identical to yur buds.I "sort" of had the same problem.  But it only happened when I o'clocked my celeron 300a to 450 mhz. I couldn't run any accelerated games or apps, just windows.

Just a couple of days ago I partitioned and reformatted my HD.Re-installed everything and today found the latest Nvidia drivers build 5.32 (http://www.members.home.com/k.plante/Nvidia532.zip).The machine is running like a charm now.
Perhaps a reformat is the answer? I couldn't run AH on my o'clocked machine until today.

 Hi Titanium!   I got lost on the "choose room option."   What is that?
 Also make sure he has DX7.a if Aerotechs tip doesn't help.
