Is there a utililty that will show if I'm running out of video memory? I'm getting video card crashes running Flight Sim 9 and FSX on my rig. Changing video slider settings doesn't seem to help. I've also had blue screens when booting up the computer and at random times, with various errors reported, nothing consistent. The power supply voltages look within specs.

RivaTuner can monitor VRAM usage and a lot of other stuff.

Thanks, I installed RivaTuner but don't see how to use it. It's not very intuitive.

True. You have to know your way around it.

Here is a guide to help get you started.
