Memory Lock

i have a 8i915ME-GL gigabyte motherboard. i recently updated the BIOS from version F3 to F6. since that time i'm not able to properly quit any games.
even if it is the graphics excellent NFS-Most Wanted or the simple DX-Ball game, when i try to quit the game, the screen goes blank with only the mouse pointer in it. and i have to restart the computer. can someone explain me why this happens and if there is any possible solution for this. and is this happening because of the BIOS update? i have P4 3.00Ghz CPU, a 512mb DDR RAM and G-force 6200 graphics card.

Are you using the latest forceware drivers???

Sometimes BIOS flashes bring about incompatibility with gfx cards.....see if updating the drivers doesn't help then revert back to the older BIOS>.

try reinstalling the forceware driver with the latest version
Better reinstall every driver then see

before updating the BIOS i updated the drivers for my graphics card. anyway i'll try reinstalling all the drivers again. thanks for the suggestion.
