I have been having lots of Dr. Watson and Blue Screen of Death crashes on my NT 4.0 SP5 while running VFP 6.0, even after SP3... I finally determined/realized that the DLL which is causing the (BSOD exceptions) problems is my video driver. I found in MS TechNet an article with a list of video drivers known to cause problems with VFP... (Of course Trident was listed, but not 100% sure I have the 8900c chipset.)

Ok, so where is the list of recommended video cards/drivers? I would love to eliminate these crashes... If I spend the whole day in VFP it might crash every ten minutes or so, with the BSOD several times a day...

So, who can recommend a PCI video card that has been solid with HEAVY usage of VFP design time program? If I get several for the same card, I am sure I can justify the expense.

Thanks,

BOb

(BTW The PC is a DFI, which we also seems to have alot of problems with at the office. They have moved to buying Compaq and Dells but of course I got one of the last batches of DFI)
