I'm trying to, XP keeps bitching that the driver is causing system errors which is making my PC lock up.

I've got the latest drivers/patches installed

Any ideas?

Is the ASUS a GeForce card ?

If it is then it sounds like you have the same problem a lot of people are having...

Do a search for nv4disp.dll on google and you'll see an article from VIA on the problem.
