Problems with 3dcard or doom 3

[Makaman]

Im getting this error with my ati 9600pro when playing doom3 only..It says "VPU recovery has reset your graphics accelerator as it is no longer responding to graphics drivers commands" What does this mean? I only get it when playing D3 but thats the only game that requires alot of graphics. please help...sometimes the PC resets also.

looks like you should get some water cooling in your beast. Whoa fun fun. Cool her down and then get her hot all over agian sounds fun dont it

Instead of water cooling just get something like this
PCI fan

put it right below your graphic card and your set. it's a lot easier than water cooling.
