Hi to everybody!
Iīve got the Creative G Force annihilator 256 32Mb sdram. The card works well until I try to play a game. When I do it...my system hangs.(mobo a7v133)

-I have already updated my drivers from creative and another time from Nvidia website.
-I have changed the bios values...disabling shadows...
-I have increased the agp, cpu memory voltage...
-I have disabled the screen saver and the power management interface... tested several versions of directx and nothing takes a good result.

What can I do??
(The system works perfectly with a Voodoo3 2000, why it canīt work with a GForce? ).

Have you installed the via 4 in 1 drivers?
If so you might have some remains of the voodoo drivers in your system than you need to remove.

I have already installed the via 4 in 1 v4.24 and the new version 4.30. and nothing.
I formated the hdd and reinstalled the OS so there wasnīt any drivers from my voodoo3.
What can I do?

You can try the things at the above link under video cards that you have not already tried.
Goodluck.

Try some new drivers from here (http://www.the-ctrl-alt-del.com/Drivers.htm) and make sure you're running at least directx7, preferably version 8.
