I've been getting the infamous Blue Screen of Death without fail when running the Aquarium screen saver. I've tried a few different resolutions and color-depths but to no avail. The error invariably references a dll that starts with "ati" (video driver!). I'm running a custom built P4 2.53Ghz w/ an ATI All-In-Wonder 8500 128Meg video board. The latest drivers from ATI (version 6.14.0001.6307) and upgrade to DirectX9 have not been enough for me to avoid these blue-screens and reboots. Anyone else experience this, or have a clue for a frustrated fan of Aquarium screen saver?

Cheers,
Loopnut
