Game locks up corrupts and activates vpu recovery.
   

I play the game and all works perfectly but I am getting random lockups where the game will freeze and the graphics turn to a load of vertical lines. A couple of time I have had the vpu recovery screen flash up but other than that I have to reset my computer to recover.
I have a Radion 9600pro and am running the latest ATI drivers plus latest VIA 4 in 1 drivers DX9 and have a LCD flatron monitor. G2 is the only game I am having this problem with.
Any ideas?

Can be everything. Heat (graphics card, CPU), unstable power supply, remainings of old drivers which interfere with the new ones.
G2 puts a lot of pressure on your system. Itīs quite possible the problems donīt surface under only 90% load.

I have gone mad and reformated my drive and all now seems well.
I have had this problem before with games and the only thing I can put it down to is the fact that I used the Omega drivers, and when you change to the official ati drivers it seems that some ofthe Omega drivers stay, and foul up your system.
