Most annoying error ever. Seems to happen randomly while playing cs, never anything else. I've googled it and it seems like this is a pretty common problem with vista and nvidia drivers. This happens atleast once a day, and when it does, I have to restart my PC or it will continue to do it)

"Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding, but has succesfully recovered."

I've tried a lot of the fixes I've found online, but so far nothing has fixed it. I removed a windows patch that helped some people, Uninstalled the drivers completely with a driver cleaner and reinstalled, done the same in safe-mode. Manually expanded the nvlddmkm driver from command prompt, underclocking my video card. Some people claim only using 1 stick of ram has fixed the problem, but that's retarded, considering I use 3 sticks, and I would be down to 2 gigs, which is barely enough to run vista to begin with (Please no retarded responses like "use xp instead". I have a copy of 64-bit xp, but I would rather not use it)

Has anyone had this problem before?

PC Info:
E-VGA Geforce 8800GTS 320MB
Windows Vista Enterprise 64bit

I've reinstalled my drivers like 10 times. It's happening with fallout3 now.

I'd rather not but a new card. This card is fine for the games I play, I shouldn't have to buy a new video card to play a 10 year old game

I've been researching this and I found out that many people get BSOD'd trying to fix it so you should maybe backup any important stuff.
But most likely you probably have all that on your linux platform anyway.

The first thing I would do is maybe system restore, thats probably my favourite feature for windows. Best thing ever created imo.

What I have found is that:

If you have an EVGA 680i mobo or any 680i mobo, downgrade on drivers.
Downgrade on all recent drivers. The most common cause to this problem was downloading
nVidia's GPU drivers. Downgrade on those ones and also there is no need to buy a new video card because of that (Kommy).

That could help you. Apparently nVidia's 169.25WHQL driver might be the problem.

If all else fails, trying using 32bit or run CS in OpenGl, Software or D3D.

I've been trying out new drivers since I got the error, it seems to happen with all of them. I'll check out the other suggestions though. TY

[heleos]

No, but I also haven't altered by bios. I can check it out though

[heleos]

My CPU is overclocked, but that has nothing to do with graphics. RAM isnt overclocked, and I actually underclocked my GPU a  little bit, but it didn't help

ohh i know what will fix this right click ur cs icon and go to propertys then compatability then set it to run in windows xp mode :]

[heleos]

I think I fixed the problem... Bought a new computer

f***, my comp started doing the same thing a couple of days ago, it usually happens once or twice a day
