Hi I've had my ASUS GTX 580 (ENGTX580/2DI/1536MD5) since launch last November. Over the past month most of my DX10/11 games are crashing like minimizing/black screens after a random 5/10 mins of play.
I thought it’s could be a bug or virus my computer had so I reinstalled Windows. Until when I loaded up Crysis 2 DX11 (for example). All the same problems happen again.
I installed latest drivers that nvidia has launched (I should wait for the full WHQL version - but god knows when that will be available)
I vacuumed the fan a few days ago (same with the entire system) looks brand new now
Ran Crysis 2 in windowed mode (and with lower dx11 graphics options)
Configured SMART Doctor to enable SMARTFan setting/custom setting to 80% and Overheat Protection.
Still no luck. However when I ran the game/s in windowed mode I got a chance to quickly notice and print screen the following errors:
I also checked Windows reliability history and it gave me this log:

All I can gather right now on errors.
I’m hoping it’s just a glitch in the drivers and no problem with the card. The fan does work and never had problems before such as this. The temperature of the graphics card is roughly 65-70 degrees C when playing Crysis 2 (Dx11) or Just Cause 2 (Dx10) and the FPS are pretty good (Crysis 2 FPS= 45-53). On normal load 39-45 degrees (aero theme enabled and Auto Fan setting – SMART Doctor).
The card isn’t overclocked and never has been – too dangerous for me and I wouldn’t know what I’m doing.
CAN ANYBODY HELP ME WITH THIS ISSUE??? Anything to stop the damn games from freezing.
I’m yet to test my other DX10/11 games such as: Metro 2033 DX11, Assassin’s Creed DX10, Fear 3 DX11, that I am in the middle of completing.
