Hi!
 
I'm running WinXP Pro and sometimes it just freezes. After a view seconds a bluescreen appears telling me that NV4_disp.dll (or something like that) caused an error and that the system is going to be rebootet. Then XP reboots. Afterwards it's running fine again.
 
My system:
AMD Athlon XP 1800+
512 MB RAM
Asus A7V266-E MoBo
Geforce 2 Ti 64MB DDR-RAM
Sb Live! Value
 
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

I'd say you have the Infinite Loop BSOD. It happens with most VIA chipsets using NVIDIA XP drivers on either Win 2k or XP. Try the latest 4 in 1's. They may help you.

I agree with mister_man, update to the VIA 4.37 drivers and see how that goes. If this fails I would swap your memory out if you have any spare and test it with different memory.
 
Good luck

OP
Hi!
 
I read the article at viaarena.com but it wasn't very helpful.
But now I think I fixed the problem for me.
 
I did a complete WinXP reinstall, did NOT install the via 4-in-1 drivers, removed my SB Live! and installed the nVidia 23.11 Detonators.
Now everything is fine, no BSOD anymore.
