I have the ati x800 card... best card out there.
I also had the vpu error. I called ati service support and told me to get the latest driver for the card. I did and I never had a problem since. try that.
I have tryed this already m8 thanks anyways

Sounds like one of two problems:
A) Your computer is overclocked but not stable. up voltages/loosen timings or lower clocking.
or
B) You have a poor PSU and it cant handle the guzzling of your gfx card. I had this with a 9800pro, upgraded to a 460W enermax PSU and i can overclock my computer to hell and back and stuck in a 6800gt and its perfectly stable voltage wise.
If you can run memtest86 and prime95 and also run a 3dmark programmme. (3dmark03 is probably best, its graphic intensive) and if it crashes at any point, then your system is unstable either due to overclocking or voltages.
are your voltages stable? I dont care if youve a 600W psu, if its a no-brand psu its most likely it cant hold all your voltage rails at the right level once the graphics card kicks in.
my computer is not OC'ed and i have a 450watt Orion PSU but thanks m8

an ATI rep. from Rage3d.com told me to try this but it didn't work either thanks anyways m8

You said your graphic card ist running on 8x AGP....i heard, that this may be to fast so maybe you want to try it 4x AGP...

i need to know what this "LRAND" is?? that way i can call up the company who made my computer and order a new part I do know its related to memory?!
I have Dual 512ddr4 pc3200 Corsair XMS Pro's w/heat shield and LED's.
Think i'm gonna remove 1 at a time and run the memory test again and try to find this LRAND problem?

Sounds like bad RAM or PSU to me

Don't think its your memory its wrong with, the program might say there a problem but it can be caused by many things.
I had the same problem and many others like you and it was solved by changing the AGP to x4 in the BIOS and in smartgart.
It seems ATI yet again have problems with their drivers, ALOT of people are having problems with version 3.8 and up of the drivers and have to use version 3.1 and some 3.7 to get rid of the problems.
Here are some links you might find interesting:

I had this exact same problem with a Radeon 9800 Pro, only not just affecting EVE - it'd happen in a lot of 3D intensive games, such as Halo. I eventually tracked it down to AGP voltage, which somebody above suggested but it doesn't appear you've tried changing yet. By default your AGP slot will be 1.5v - go into your BIOS and see if you have an option for increasing this. I'd try 1.55v, but if it continues to be a problem go a little higher still. I did this and my crashes disappeared completely.
As a side note, the VPU recover feature is actually saving you from a full on hardware crash. Without it, your machine would just reboot, but this allows the graphics card to reset. Unfortunately it can't always restore it to full function, and a reboot is still needed, but if it gives you chance to save work in other open applications then it's saved you some trouble.

Oh, they never lie. They dissemble, evade, prevaricate, confound, confuse, distract, obscure, subtly misrepresent and wilfully misunderstand with what often appears to be a positively gleeful relish and are perfectly capable of contriving to give one an utterly unambiguous impression of their future course of action while in fact intending to do exactly the opposite, but they never lie. Perish the thought.

I own an ATI X800 XT and I'm using the 4.9 Catalyst driver. Everything runs extremely fine and smooth. Absolut no problems with EVE or any other game so far.

Just to be on the safe side, download Memtest86+ and let it run for a few hours. I've had it report errors in 10-15 mins, whereas other programs have run flawlessy for multiple hours.
