I am running Leo4allV3 flawlessly on my computer. My new Graphics card arrived yesterday its an AGP slot one. So i plugged it in and booted , i then download Nvidia Universal Installer and selected the 256mb package. I then restarted and i had QE/CI working, BUT after a couple of minutes , sometimes after an hour the system will lock up when browsing or accessing the HD .. I removed Geforce.Kext but then i had no acceleration. So does anyone of you all have any clues or can you at least point me in the right direction. Thanks

Hey dude I have that problem too. Same hardware, except I have 160 GB with 2 sata drives and a 40GB IDE makes 200, also I only have 1GB of ddr2 pc5300 667MHz *thumbs up* I'm looking for the kext right now, i'll let you know if I find one. Got you bookmarked. I'm getting artifacts right now with no driver at all on 10.5.6.
