Are you sure it is not a heat problem? I have a radeon 9600, and I had
to install an extra fan in the box. Without it the computer
automatically shutdown as it was getting too hot after running 3D stuff.
The system would run at a lower temperature so long as I didn't run any
3D games, 3D screensavers or something like beryl.
