Is anyone else having problems with the Gecube X1950 AGP?

I've had a hell of a time getting Company of Heroes to work on this card. It works most of the time with the factory drivers but if I try and update I get endless crashing and resets with the occasional blue screen thrown in. Everything else is ok (including Dawn of War) so I guess it's more a CoH problem than a Gecube one. It's slightly annoying not being able to update my drivers though, anyone else got this game to work ok?

I got a PCI-e GECUBE X1950 Pro that im sending back, same problems. Freezes in every game - tested 5 different games and 4 different drivers. System just locks up and I have to reboot! They don't seem to come with sensors so you can't find out the GPU temp, but imo I think they overheat when they are under demand!

Might be worth contacting Relic with your specs & let them know what is happening & see what reply they can give you.

Well, I tried using automatic settings instead of putting everything at max and enabled AA from the Ati console rather than the game (a tip I heard at the relic boards) and it's working fine now. I'm not even going to bother with updating my drivers for a while at least.
