I debugged the problem further with your suggestions and the results are as
follows: the problem persists when I disable GARTSize, AccelDFS and
DynamicClocks. It also persists when I try AGP Modes 1x, 2x and 4x (I don't
think my system is not AGP 8x capable). However, disabling RenderAccel seems to
stop the crash from occurring but I can't be 100% sure. I tested reloading the
Engadget page about 30-40 times in Firefox 3.1 with RenderAccel disabled and It
didn't crash. Then I re-enabled RenderAccel and I managed to get a crash on the
first load of Engadget. When I have RenderAccel disabled, X is very slow at
drawing to the screen and it is not suitable for normal use as a workaround. I
hope this helps.

Thank you for taking the time to help me with this. Please let me know if there
is anything else I can do.
