Direct 3D fullscreen in win2k hangs

Umm... did you do an upgrade of Win2k or a clean install? It doesn't do anything like that for me (which I realize isn't really helpful).

Is your Win2k running ACPI or standard?

Direct 3D fullscreen in win2k hangs

Running games like UT or even direct3D diagnostics makes the computer hang.
I got a G400 dh 16Mb card running on a dual celeron 400MHz @ 550MHz. (abit bp6) The computer seems stable and is running Q3 fine (no turbo-gl though). The game/test draws pictures for about a second before it hangs.
Windowed direct3d is no problem.
I use the newest beta-drivers from matrox(5)

Can anybody help me?
