Random screen corruption playing AVI or MPGs
Occasionally I get total screen corruption(unusable) using Media Player on 2000 Pro while playing AVI/MPG files off the *cough* Disney news group on 2000. I've seen it happen on both my home and work PC, which ironically are both using Voodoo3 cards.

Apparently the machine isn't totally locked up because I can go through the keystrokes to shut down and it will shut down clean.

I had that problem once in a while too, I started getting it when I got the 2000 drivers for my V3, and when I got the new windows update stuff. What I did was on the "RUN" thing on the start up bar, I set it to run unreal, so when that happened I pressed the windows key, went up twice and hit enter, then unreal would start. When I went back to windows it was back to normal, this only worked once, cause since then I formatted and haven't really seen many avis or MPGs, if you have any games, wouldn't hurt to try, worst thing that can happen is it won't work.
