System Shock -- Strange bugs!

   I upgraded my motherboard recently.  And before, I had no problems at 
all running System Shock, now I get all sorts of freaky stuff happening.

   The wall graphics stretch and distort occasionally.  Especially after 
trucking down a hall with the speed skates on.  The wall graphics bend 
and tilt.  It's rather hard to explain, but that's the best I can do. ;)

   Whenever I die w/o the regeneration bay switch thrown (so when you 
die, it's game over), it almost always crashes with a 'page fault' error. 
Only once out of five times has it worked.

   Now for the Really Wierd Thing:  Invincible Mutants.  Every now and 
again (happened thrice so far), a humanoid mutant will become completely 
invincible.  And it spits out 'no damage' messages as if I had the 
hardware to detect damage, which I don't.

   I don't know what's wrong, since I didnt have these problems on the 
old motherboard.  Something might be tweaky with the board itself, since 
it doesn't like playing .MOD sound files, either... <Shrug>

   Any help would be really appriciated. ;) Thanks!
