SS freezes pc
I'm trying to run SS v1.1 on a amd k6-450, win xp, sp1, current video driver. It runs from 1-10 mins before freezing. I'm using a SIS 305 32meg video card. Could I possibly need a different video card.

It could, repeat could, be your video card. But the more likely culprit would be the drivers that you have installed. Alot of the time we have found that the latest video drivers are not the best. All these companies are throwing out drivers to try and tweak speed, speed, speed, to make their's look like they are "better" than some others. Usually compatability suffers in this quest. You might be better to install older drivers and shoot for compatability, once you get smooth frame rates and everything looks good, the rest is just bragging rights and for the most part offers nothing.
