This is a dumb thought, but are you sure that your video card actually
crashed.  I have had Executor dump me in an unsupported video mode. 
Blindly entering the commands to change the video modes cleared it.  If
you have one of the numerous utilities which allow you to change your
card's mode, you might want to script it to run after Executor.
