If I'm playing a game and for some reason the process is terminated for the game while it is still executed (like through task manager), my screen will flash blue and I'll get a System Failure error. I'm on Windows XP SP2. I am using Direct X 9c and ForceWare 66.xx. I've tried multiple drivers of this series and they all encounter this error. Is this because of the drivers? Also, after the "BSOD", (when I restart), I hear this ringing noise coming from what sounds like my monitor? It's annoying because if a game crashes wrong, it crashes my entire PC with it.
 
I forgot to mention my motherboard as it may be important. K8N Neo Platinum.
 
This game doesn't happen to be UT2004 does it? Because this is a known problem.
 
Er...not a clue then. Never heard of any problems with those games so far. You might want to goto those game specific forums and see if anyone is having the same issues.
 
I'm going to try and recreate the error (by crashing games) on games that do not have the problem. Like Doom 3 and the Battlefield series.
