THE MAIN ONE IS WHEN I NOW PLAY DEUS EX, IT PLAYS FOR ABOUT A MINUTE THEN THE SCREEN DISSAPEARS AND A GENERAL PROTECTION FAULT COMES UP SAYING ""HISTORY: MESSAGE PUMP<MAIN LOOP""
I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO TO FIX IT, SO COULD SOMEBODY PLEASE GIVE ME SOME ADVICE AS IT WORKED PERFECTLY BEFORE.
I HAVE A AMD ATHLON 800HTZ PROCESSOR,AND A GEFORCE MX440 IF THAT HELPS. THANKS

What OS are you running?

With gaming problems it is always best to check you have all the latest device drivers and disable processes that do not need to be running, whilst gaming.

Also, STOP SHOUTING!!

It could be that you have the caps lock on.

On more serious note, make sure you have the latest WHQL drivers from NVidia for your graphics card. Also i remeber when i had a Geforce3 that there was a patch for this game to sort out incompatabilities with the Geforce line of cards - normally only showed in degraded performance though.

Failing that, get rid of windows Me, it`s a rubbish operating system. Install windowsXP instead.
