Game Crashes in Vista
I am running Windows Vista Basic and while playing the game Jewel Quest my PC freezes up. At first the game starts to run slow and then crashes to the desktop or to a blue screen and I have to do a hard reboot. What could be causing this? Hopefully it's the game as this is a brand new computer. Thanks for any suggestions....

Using latest 7.4 Catalyst drivers from ATI, it appears that my call to ChoosePixelFormat() never returns. I suspect this might be more of a PC configuration thing since the same OpenGL initialization succeeds on my development PC where I have Visual C+...
