I did kindly ask you not to post in my thread Legitsu. Prior to installing Renegade X, I have 309 + hours in Chivalry ( which also uses the Unreal engine ). I don't need to stress test jack. If you had more than 5 minutes of experience in gaming, you would have known that in the past, specific video games accidentally wiped entire drives! If you knew anything about coding, you would know that it's trivially easy to randomly, delete critical files.

I can't run stress tests on a machine that is BSODing, can I? Try and use an ounce of common sense?

I ran stress tests after I built the rig and the rig sits inside a $300+ Lian-Li case: PC-A77F. I suggest that you don't comment on threads. If you had ability to read, and comprehend, you would know that I have already posted this on HardOCP ( post #1, line #1 ). The last thing that an OS does is to write to the registry, that's why a proper shutdown is critical. If a game is doing stuff like blocking access to windows task manager and forcefully rebooting the OS, then the OS will get corrupted, since it didn't get a chance to write files to the registry and do cleanup etc.
For the devs:
I did the "clean reinstall" of the NVIDIA drivers, using the check box thing that you suggested. My rig is undergoing catastrophic system failure. I'm in the process of saving documents ( resumes ). I'm going to have to rebuild the rig from scratch. XP has the master boot record and keeps blue screening and displaying unusual graphical patterns. Some system file is damaged but I did not get a chance to write down the details nvk something sys. I started writing down the blue screen error messages:
nv4_disp
