    Everytime I try and run Gunbound I get the blue screen of death on my ASUS W3J. I'm running the latest XP Omegadrivers.

    Any suggestions on what to do?

    ANyone else have this problem?

    Sorry this might not ahve been the best place to post, but i wasn't sure what else to do.

    Is it the NMI parity bsd ?

    Try and roll back to the original drivers , if it works and you need "tweaked" drivers then try other version from tweakrus etc .

    Chaz says that Omega Drivers are not better that the origina drivers for x1 series,I suggest you install the original drivers and "play safe".

    I've used both, and personally.. my FPS is better with Omegas and I've had no problems with this driver. Make sure when you're switching drivers.. clean out your old drivers completely with Drivercleaner Pro: http://www.drivercleaner.net/professional.html to get rid of traces left behind that could cause issues.
