I have the graphics chip connected to an external LCD using the vga port.

Btw, I made a mistake in my first post. The chip is an intel 945GM, not 965G.

I've done a bit of experimenting and this crash only occurs when the
"accel" option is turned on. If accel is turned on (the default), then
when I modprobe the driver the system restarts. Otherwise the system
comes on.

Is accel something crucial that I should be concerned about?

Thanks,
Jon
