I have the same problem on two different PCs
and two different main boards.
The first one mentioned below is occurring under Win XP Pro
and SuperMicro m/b P6SBU.

The other on Win 2K and on the Medion 2001 m/b.
NVIDIA on this PC is GeForce2MX/Mx400

Strange enough both display work ok, but
are recording this catastrophic failure...
I'm lost...

Hi,

I use the NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 with AGP8X.

Has anyone faced the "Catastrophic failure" when
trying to check the "Properties" of Settings from
the Desktop? I wonder what it is about?

Nothing particularly dramatic happened but
the announcement is pretty scary...;-)
