i play a computer game called TFC, its a half-life mod.
well lately when i alt tab out of the game to check AIM
or irc, my computer restarts. now theres a catch...it
doesn't restart every time i alt tab, i can alt tab out
maybe 3 or 4 times, but randomly it will restart. my
friend told me to use the BSOD (blue screen of death). so
i did, and the next time it happened the BSOD came up. it
said a bunch of stuff, but the main thing i noticed was
this: atidvag.dll - Address BF9BF650 base at BF9B7000,
DateStamp 3efa16db

I have a ATI Radeon 9700 128 gfx card, and i believe that
there is something wrong with a driver or something.

Please help, this has become quite an annoyance. thanks
(sorry i already posted this, but i forgot to include my
email)
