Yesterday I tried reducing hardware acceleration to MIN
in Screen-Settings-Advanced-Troubleshooting

it worked fine: no crash within 2 hours of work
but really poor graphic performances.

The problem now is:
is it the main board driver?
the graphic adapter driver?
or directx 9 itself?

All drivers are up-to-date

Can you/anybody tell what is happening.

Thanks
