Been using my brand new pc for about a week now. I got a GTX 580 to enjoy games like BF3.
However, in the 2 games I've tried, World of warcraft and BF3, while playing the screen will go black for about 5 seconds, then I See the desktop with the message
Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered.
I've tried many drivers, 275.33 which apparently is the more stable one.
I then tried the official 285.62 and then the beta drivers made for BF3 285.79.
Each and every driver does the same thing after a while and this system is brand new. Specs are
16GB DDR3
Intel i7 3.4
Win 7 64bit
1000w PSU.
I've had no problems when using premiere pro or other programmes. To be fair I've only tried 2 games, but these are the 2 games I want to play and it keeps happening.
After some tweaks I found this on a forum:
Nvidia Control Panel --> Manage 3D Settings:
Power management mode: Prefer maximum performance
Nvidia Control Panel --> Set PhysX configuration
Select a PhysX Processor: CPU
However, this hasnt fixed it either. Was playing about 5 games today on and off. The last game crashed with the same after about 30 minutes.
Idle temp of the 580 is 49C and when playing bf3 about 65C.
I reduced some graphics settings on WoW (not sure why, this card should eat it alive) and it helped for a while. But I am at a loss. I'm also running BF3 on ultra with no problems, so far.
Any ideas?
At the moment I can't even play wow.
