New Omega Drivers (6.7 modified) cause crash
just like the title says, i installed the new Omega 3.8273 drivers (modified 6.7) and when i try to run a FS2 build, it goes to the proper resolution, then there's hard drive activity, and then it goes to a very small resolution with a solid blue screen, and then my computer restarts.  i will attempt to run with a debug build, but in the meantime, this is my issue.


A run with the debug build produces the same problem.  since it restarts, i was unable to save any error text that may have appeared,  for the moment i'm going to move back to older drivers.

IIRC the 6.7 Catalysts have the exact same issue.
Karajorma's Freespace FAQ. It's almost like asking me yourself.

I've had the exact same thing happen to me before with my current drivers, omega 38231 (cat 6.5).  I found that, at least for me, it would happened everytime the game tried to play back an avi movie.  Not sure if it's related but it's the exact same thing that happens.

There have been a number of people complaining about this recently. 6.6 works fine for me, but I haven't tried 6.7.
