    the latest drivers are optimised for newwer products.

    get it again here but make sure that the old one is removed from the control panle,add/remove programs, but before the restart, delete the folder in c drive called nvidia, empty trash can, then restart and install the new driver that you downloaded.

    sidenote that driver is for xp and win 2k only.

    i think you might need to wait for a newwer driver as it seems a common problem with the 7600gt. mine has done it twice in a month but only on battlefield 2, no other games. i have read about it on several forums and it does seem to be worse with the older drivers. what make is your 7600gt?

    now if you want to buy a new cpu, great, but if you want to go c2d you need to check your mobo and psu are upto it, and you may need new ram for another mobo.
