On a clean install, I kept getting error message "R300 stopped responding,
but recovered" or some such, or a complete freeze-up of my comp.

I've since forced the AGP in the BIOS to run at 4x, unstead of 8x, and it
has been perfectly stable through the weekend.

Am I missing something in the settings to get it to run on 8x?

Thanks!
