Bluescreens - 174.74?

[Paracelsus]

Hi folks. Been getting a few BSODs about page in not paged area, or IRQ not less than or equal etc, the only thing I've changed is putting an 8800GTX in and installing these drivers. It's happened in Windows, not in games.

Reckon it's the drivers, or could some other part of my system randomly become unstable?

change drivers and you will find out....use driver cleaner pro though to get rid of all traces from old drivers

Yeah after posting I tried the WHQL 169.21 and the newer 174.93 beta. BSODs on both. Random files like flpydisk.sys and stuff. Only thing I've changed since a few days ago is this new GTX.

I am re-torture testing my CPU overclock and memory, to see if that coincidentally became unstable at the same time.

Read a few reports of GTX/Creative soundcard driver clashes, but they seemed quite old so not sure if that would apply now.

If it carries on I'll pop the Radeon back in and see if it stops.

I had issues with nvidia cards and creative in vista 64. Random blue screens. None in vista 32 or XP.
