Hello, I'm having a problem where any 3D game will freeze up the moment I launch the game. I've had a problem for a long time where certain games, such as Grand Theft Auto III won't start because I get an error message that the game requires at least 16MB of video memory (even though I have 128MB). And with 3D games that do work, I get lots of little white dots all over the screen. My graphics card manufacturer says there is no problem with my card, and I also get the problem with the white dots with another 64MB card, but 3D games like GTA III will work fine with that card. I ignored these problems for about a year but now it's gotten to the point where games won't start up at all. I have tried replacing the motherboard, RAM, video card, and monitor with no success. Any help/ideas anyone has would be greatly appreciated.
