I'd say every third day, when i play a game COD4, L4D demo, COH, CS:S, etc) my screen starts going black every tens seconds or so, with the message "display driver nts something something has crashed but has recovered." Restarting the computer fixes the problem for a day or so. I tried reinstalling drivers and re-seating the card, what could be causing this? My guess was either PSU, (mines a bit old) the card its self, or that I just need to do a clean install. Thanks!

What is temperature of the card during gaming? Also, does it still do this at stock clocks?

It's not overclocked any more and the temps are fine....

Update directx.

I did that too. My only thought would be that installing vista sp1 could help, but i really don't wanna do that...

Try using an older driver.

 

[holtzman]

Tried that too...
