Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-7VKM
Processor - AMD Athlon XP 2000+ (1.67GHz)
RAM - 2GB dual channel PC3200
Video board - 64MB NVIDIA GeForce2 MX
Sound board - "ALS 4000 Audio Device (WMD)"
Operating system - WinXP Pro SP2 (also happened on SP1)
Game name - Fallout v1.01 and Fallout 2 v1.02
Description of problem - After I play for a while a blue screen of death flashes at me and the computer instantly reboots before I can read anything on the screen. Sometimes this happens after five minutes and sometimes I can play for hours without ever having this problem.
Reproducibility of problem - Happens more often than not, but not always.
Steps already attempted to solve the problem - I've gotten later video card drivers, reinstalled, cleared all fallout registry keys.
My old sound card failed and while Windows was booting I got the BSOD & instant reboot, but this only happened once. I just mention it because it's the only time it has happened outside the game. Actually, after this happened and I put in a new sound card I played the game for about 4 hours successfully and thought it was cured, but the next time I tried it happened again.
