I just built my Athlon system.. gernuine 550mhz, 128mb ram (pc100).
The crash is weird, i know it's must be a driver issue or something, because it only crashes WHEN i quit a game. I had tried at first the 3dfx beta drivers (only ones for v2 on their site for dx7a) and i updated to dx7a before doing anything.
So i went back to the older voodoo2 drives from maxi guillemont and dx6, but dx6 install kinda got messed over 7a.
Anyways, now only GLQuakeworld/GLquake seem to crash sometimes on quit... sometimes it's fine, and Half-life never crashes. the crashes i experience are usually kernel32.dll errors, and sometimes i can press ok, other times it freezes my entire machine and must hit power button.
i'm about to go buy a tnt2 ultra tho.. but this V2 is still pretty fast in my system pumping out 130fps in half-life at 800x600.
