Ok, this one is driving me crazy. At first I thought it was WWIIOnline that was having the problem (like all the others it has!) but now I'm finding it in all my DX games.

Basically anything that does D3D crashes. Sometimes it's just to the desktop, other times I need to reset. This happens after a delay, and the delay seems random. It's almost as if after sending xxx commands to the card, it crashes.

Anyone out there know how to debug DX? I have the uninstaller, but I'm not going to use it until I get an installer (although it's likely I have an installer on one of my game CD's). I have a TNT2 (not ultra) and I'm running the latest drivers from nVidea.

I'm running 8.0a. I think that's the problem.

Pye: DXDiag reports no problems.
