    This problem is gonna be the death of me..

    I have a KT7a with Win98SE, Geforce 2 MX 400 etc.

    This may or may not have anything to do with my problem but; I was having some problems with a USB device (a ADSL modem) - all my USB devices stopped working on the main USB ports. I reinstalled the modem drivers and finally fixed the problem by using the USB plate that plugs into the motherboard.

    Anyway, ever since then, 7/10 times when I play DivX files (3.11 alpha or DivX4) the screen will go completely blank (but the signal is still being received because the monitor doesn't go into standby), i can't get out of it without rebooting the PC. Occasionally instead of the blank I will get a BSOD abotu viagart.vxd (the VIA AGP miniport driver).

    I have tried:
    -doing a 'soft' format (delete windows folder only then install windows again)
    -reinstalling the DivX codecs
    -reinstalling WMP.
    -playing the files with a different software other than WMP.
    -reinstalling the VIA drivers
    -installing the updated via drivers in both Standard and turbo mode.

    No luck yet (((

    Anyone have any ideas?
