Well, moving the video card did not produce a result that was different than the original PCI-E location. The game still crashed. I have attached the minidump zip to the post, though I already know it will tell us the same thing that the rest of the minidumps tell us, atikmpag.sys.
I am going to shutdown and move my video card back to the original location. I don't believe moving the card to the 8x PCI-E slot is going to improve the stability, and it will only slow down the card.
Also, when I moved my video card to this bottom PCI-E slot, I used my Antec LCD Power Supply Tester (Amazon.com: Easy Accurate Pc Power Tester for Atx 20/24PIN Power ) to verify that the power supply was at least providing proper volts. I know this doesn't test the amperage, but I don't have an ampmeter, so this is all I have to work with. The tester showed that everything was within nominal limits, including that both 6-pin connectors that feed the video card were putting out the exact same voltage.
At this point, I am waiting for FedEx to deliver my new copy of RCT3 Platinum. When that arrives, I will install from those disks and see what happens. I will also remove all traces of Daemon Tools prior to that install. If this results in the same exact issue, I am going to run into my local computer shop, and buy a new 250GB Hard Drive to install a fresh copy of Windows 7 onto. I don't want to format/reinstall over the current installation if I don't have to.
