Well, I think my GeForce2 MX died.

I was using NT last night and shut the machine down for a reboot, but instead got a BSOD of IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, which often means a hardware (or very buggy driver) problem. On reboot to WinMe, the desktop never came up.

I played with that for a while but disturbingly, the Detonator 6.31 installer at one point popped up and said "NVidia chip not found in this system!"

On another reboot to NT everything worked fine, but this morning NT had crashed and now it won't run, either.

The card now only works in 80-column text mode, and in 16-color 640x480. Everything else results in a crash on either OS
