I was haveing a problem where when 4x is enabled in my bios, any 3d application would lock immediattely or shorly after. tryed a bunch of things. different drivers, moved cards around, took cards and components out, different miniport drivers and southbridge drivers, messed with the bios in everyway i can think of. and ultimetly ended up re-partitioning and re-formating my hard drive, only installed det drivers fresh. no other devices installed, no irq conflits at all, nothing sharing, again in 4x it locks up. i dont know wny this is happening, and i dont know what else i can do. system:
