Ginny, I'm going to cross-post this in the Tribes group and see
what sort of help we can get for you. If anyone can help with this
problem, it will be a fellow Tribes addict! ;o)

(I'll try to stop the cross post in agst so it doesn't get crazy. :o} )

Check grounding on the motherboard. Also check to ensure memory modules are
seated in place. Check the ambient temperature inside the case. Check to
see if your m/b's bios is up to latest flash as well as if you have the VIA
chipset, get the drivers (for Winblowz) at http://www.viahardware.com . I'd
need to know more about system specs before I could isolate it more for you.

This could be the problem. I find when i run Tribes that I get a little
buzzer going off inside my tower. There is an alarm warning it is to hot
tin there. It almost is exclusive to tribes. I guess it is really
working the system hard.

you mean a bytegeist?

a free floating digitary

a binary ghost?

personally i think bugs bunny knew it all the time.... gremlins..... and not
the dodge type...
