Games freeze when loading something!
 
Hi! I have this problem wiht games freezing when they are loading something (at least they haven't freezed while playing).
This has happened in America's Army and UT2003 demo (same ut2003 engine in both?). I haven't played any other 3d game (if you don't count Tux Racer), so I don't know is this problem only in my system or in the game engine of those.
I have Geforce 4 Ti 4200, Amd Athlon 2000+ (1667Mhz), 384Mb Ram. Linux distro is Mandrake 9.2 and I have also newest nVidia drivers, and I think I have installed them right (I can post XF86config-4 when I swich back to linux).
Help?

\o/
Think I found the reason why games freeze after a while! (Took too many hours of reading forums).
Something to do with my cpu, graphics gard and opengl.

Wow. My luck, it didn't work what I tried (add "append="mem=nopentium"" to lilo.conf).
Help?

Think I got it this time *realy* workin. Just added "agpgart=no" to the lilo's conf file (/etc/lilo.conf) inside appends " ".

This just sucks. It didn't work. :(

*phew?*
Think it's only AA's and UT2003's problem. ET and Quake3 works like a dream.

...i hate that ;). maybe agpgart should stay loaded? i have a geforce fx 5700, and everything works great (i dont have either of those games, but i have alot of games that are run under winex, and some use the unreal engine...) while i have agpgart on. the nopentium option i never needed to enable, even though i have an amd cpu myself.
