Thanks.

Checked the system.log which showed a crash reported at library/logs/crashreporter/preview.crash.log

Looks like the application preview crashed? although I'm sure I didn't have it on at that point

not sure what the important information in the crash report is but for starters it said:

Exception:EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS (0x0001) at 0x34908ba0


had another look through the system.log again and the message (which i mentioned earlier in this thread) which runs during the start up procedure:

localhost kernal: ROM ndrv for ATY, Rage128PD is too old (0xb6246498)

is still sticking out as a pointer to the video card also... (like i mentioned before I can find any updated drivers for this card)

Feel like I'm still guessing about something I don't really understand though... (i can say what it says, but i can't say what it means...)

any further clues?
cheers
