Hi i got a radeon 9250 and when i try to run full screen games like gunz online,CSS, and some other games. My video card freezes and i have to do a full system reboot inorder to do anything. Its happined b4 it would just go black screen then i could alt tab but i formated my pc thinkin it was a bad driver or what ever and now i have to reboot it all the time.

If the problem just started when you installed the 9250 then the card is likely bad. Is this a PCI or AGP card?
