I am in desperate need of some advice. I bought this graphics card just about a month ago to try to solve a problem I have been having with Sims 2freezing and crashing ( thread stuck in device driver ). But since I got this I have had new problems. Frezzing crashing and a blue screen that says my computer has been shut down to prevent damage, ant that it is caused by a file ati2dvag, stuck in an infinite loop. I have read through alot of the threads here to try to come up with a solution and something about finding CPU to AGP and switching it to standard PCI to PCI. Well I could not find the CPU thing, but as far as I can tell it is already set to standard PCI to PCI. I also bought a new sound card and just cannot afoord to sink any more money into this computer right now, considering I just bought this computer in October. I have less than 4 days to try to exchange this graphics card for something else, but do not know if i should or not. And if so, what ? Oh please help. I am so confused. I do not know if it is the graphics card or my computer, or just me.

Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Gamer
