    nvidia video card/driver issues?

    Anyone having some crazy blackscreen/ kernal issues with ther nvidia cards?

    this just happened randomly to me earlier this morning.....everything was fine then all of a sudden my pc kept going black screen and then showing me a message

    Display driver NVIDIA windows kernel mode driver, version 310.70 stopped responding and has successfully recovered

    This incident first occured on my older drivers, 306.xx. So i figured it was because my stuff was out dated. Updated drivers to 310.70, problems still occuring. wasnt sure if i had a broken card or not so i did a last resort reformat of my system. Also updated my bios on my Motherboard and problem was still occuring.

    as of right now, with no drivers installed just plugged into my monitor via dvi, everything is ok.(fresh install of windows no other programs or software) no black screen/freezing/crashing.

    Im scared. what should i do? anyone else getting similar problems?

    It might be a problem with the card, when you say no drivers? Do you mean you are using a generic driver for video?

      RMA'd. called asus tech support and apparently this is a pretty well known issue.

      When i said no "drivers", i meant with just a formatted hard disk with windows, and monitor hooked into the video card. So i guess it would be stock/generic drivers yea.

      Strange thing is that it happened out of no where after about a month.. i wonder what the physical problem actually is though.

      Is it bad to leave a computer on and for extended periods of time?

        It's not. I just feel like it's a waste of electricity. You do need to restart every once in a while to clean out your memory. I know Juneau never turns off his computer.

          Most likely a physical issue there is just way too many things to list. But it does happen.

            You could try and go back to some old drivers and see if it still does it. I'd go way back to the first compatable driver for that card and work my way up. If that doesnt work then it could just be the card itself. I didnt see where you flashed the bios on the card itself. They may come out with a better bios for the card and fix the issue like that.
