I had a lot of CTDs after 1.2 and have a similar system as you. This fixed it for me; no CTDs since.

1. Installed recent video drivers. Had ones eight months old. Found new ones one month old. Went with 2x FSAA as I can't see any diffeence between 2x and 4x.
2. Checked virtual memory settings. Found them locked on 2000 MB when XP was asking for a minimum of 3049 MB. Changed to 4500 MB.
3. Unchecked "Enable write combining" after someone here pointed out that ATI cards hate this one. It's on desktop settings (right-click desktop and choose Properties) Display Properties/Advanced/Troubleshoot and uncheck the box.

Has worked fine since then. I have no mods installed either.
