    Does this happen with all games? Hop over to: www.nvidia.com/home.html
    Download the TNT Detonator drivers for the AGP card if you haven't already. Follow the instructions to install the drivers. Go to all the web sites of your games and download the latest patches if available. Install the patches. Go to Microsoft's Update and update DirectX to 6.1

    I've already download the latest drivers from nvidia and the problem still exists. Could it be caused by AMD processor??? By the Bios?? By the ASSUS motherboard?? What else can i do? Thanks.

    Hello there. It seems like I'm not the only one who's experiencing problems with the RIVA TNT. Mine's the PCI version though, but I experience the same problems with you, pamvc. Especially when I play heavy-duty 3D games like FF7. The game just goes blank when a scene finishes and just refuses to load into the next scene, although I still get HDD read-writes. I was wondering whether it is really the card that's the problem, as the TNT is still quite new to the market. Updated drivers don't seem to help the problem at all, so I think that it's neither the motherboard nor the processor that's the problem. I think that there are some minor bugs in the card.

    It seems that my problems are solved. I've downloaded the Detonator drivers for RivaTNT (www.nvidia.com) and the latest bios feature for my motherboard AsusTek (www.asus.com). Now everything seems to work properly.
