i just got a new dell 2.0 ghz, very nice setup, all the best stuff with it. it has a windows xp compatible logo on the front so i got win xp and did a clean format and install. i installed detonator 21.83 for my geforce 3 64mb card. other hardware i have: 3com network card, hollywood plus, 512mb RDram, 60gb hard drive, turtle beach santa cruz. not only do i get constant blue screens, but i cant figure out what they are from. does anyone use a creative nomad jukebox with xp? because i think that may be the problem. here is another interesting problem, 3dmark2001 freezes in the game demo mode, sound freezes, picture freezes, and i need to cold boot to get out of it. any ideas what the hell is going on? brand new friggin computer. also i have clean installed xp twice and same problems come up.

Did you get the 21.83's from nvidias site?
 
If not, then I suggest you do, as there have been some different versions from other sites.
