Hello Guys,

I wander if you ca help me please I've got a Gainward GeForce GTX 580 "GOOD Edition" 1536MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card and for some games I get kicked back to the desktop with the following error: "Display driver has stopped responding"

I've read that you can fix this by increasing the cards voltage by 50mV BUT I've also read that doing so OR underclocking your card will void the warranty.

Taking this into account it makes me think that this model of card have a manufacture fault, where do I stand on getting them to replace it??

Thx in advance,
Jarren
 
Thx for all the advise everyone but I'm with Dazzerd I shouldn't have to manually change the voltage of my card. I'm going to run it passed there support desk but I'm not holding my breath
 
It's a 750w so imo should be fine, I haven't got another PC to try it in :-( but I'm sure it's the model of card as it only seems to do it with some games. I've done a load of googling now and there's a lot of ppl saying you can either underclock the card or raise the voltage a little but thanks for the heads up.
