Well, I uninstalled DirectX9c and installed DirectX9b and the problem
persists, at least in Doom3. I am going to try patching Doom3 to see
if that has any positive results as well as installing the latest WHQL
certified drivers available on Nvidia's FTP site. Any other ideas
besides DirectX and driver issues?

when you get the runtime error is there a dialogue box that offers to
let you view the report? If so, post it.

The module that is in question is MFCxx.dll where xx is the version
modification. What dlls are loaded at the time of the error. Mine
are (notice the directory from which they are loaded);

mfc42 6.02.4131.0 1,004.00 KB (1,028,096 bytes) 8/29/2002 4:00
AM Microsoft Corporation c:\windows\system32\mfc42.dll

mfc42 6.00.8168.0 972.05 KB (995,383 bytes) 6/29/2004 1:49
PM Microsoft Corporation c:\progra~1\grisoft\avg6\mfc42.dll

You can get this by;
select All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, System Information,
Software environment, Loaded Modules

then,

edit, select all, copy

then,

post results here.

I'm also running DirectX 9.0c with Nvidia. I still think it has to do
with PNY or OpenGl but if you follow the instructions, we should know.

How did you go with this Jason?

I have an identical problem, but only on one of the three computers
here. My next step is starting the system from scratch, which I am
logically trying to avoid.

Thanks
