...by pointing him in the direction of a taskbar replacement for Windows 2000. See, his XP broke, now he's on Win2k [again]...and can't stand the plain-jane taskbar.

Anyone have any suggestions besides ObjectBar and Litestep?

No, I hope not China, this has been happening for a while now...but I''ve been able to deal with it for the past few weeks, only recently it''s been happening constantly.

What else could it be Gary?

Are you getting the BSOD before each reboot?

I don't even see that much, my screen just goes black...sometimes it reboots automatically, sometimes I gotta hit the reset button.

Look in Device Manager....what nvidia driver is installed?

Hus

on May 11, 2004

nv4_disp ver. 6.14.10.5216

How long ago did you update it to that version?

Hus

on May 11, 2004

I have absolutely no clue...but the driver is dated 10/6/2003, if that helps...

OK..just for the hell of it, let''s try something. Download these drivers ftp://download1.nvidia.com/Windows/56.72/.Also download and install this http://rudz.frac.dk/modules.php?op=modload&name=Diner_Wrapper&file=index&req=ShowFile&file_wrap=html/nfr.htm .Using the Add/Remove Programs un-install the nvidia display drivers and re-boot into safe mode. Run the NFR that you installed and it will delete all old nvidia files that might still be on your system. While still in safe mode, install the 56.72 drivers and re-boot into windows. Reset your display settings and see if the random re-boots stop.
