When I try to play PlanetSide I keep getting Random Crashes. I'll be playing just fine one moment, then my monitor goes Black and says it is not receiving a signal.

Today I could hear the game continue to play in the background, but NO SIGNAL. Never noticed that before, but I would get really pissed and just immediatly reset my system.

I just cannot figure it out... I believe it to be my video card, cuase I have had nothing but problems with it since the beginning. Is there ANYTHING I can do? :sad2:

    My video card did this when it didn't like how high my FSB was set. Also try setting your machine to AGP4x rather than 8x.

    Well my system is not OC'd, but I will try that AGP setting.

    I think it is getting to be new video card time.... If the AGP4X fixed temporarily but not for long, either video card is damaged or monitor is, as most likely thing. Sorry.

    Unless you look at your BIOS and it managed to reset to AGP8x.... If this is so, we can look at a couple other things that most would say are not related to thread as it is now.
