Hi,
I have recently built a new PC, all components are new apart from the GFX card and Hard Drives/SSD. I never had this issue with my previous build, however whenever I game now the screen goes black and the game will crash (this happens very sporadically), looking in the event log I see the error:
"Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered."
I have tried everything I can think of so far:
New Drivers, Older drivers.
Re-formatting the PC.
Running Memtest, Seatools, Prime95, Furmark - all came back fine
I tried running the recommended windows fix - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2665946?wa=wsignin1.0
I have tried running on one monitor and both, different display ports, making sure the components are seated correctly.
All temperatures are fine, CPU is around 35 degrees while in BF3 and graphics card is around 45 degrees. Nothing has been overclocked, apart from the GFX which is factory overclocked.
I am at a loss now.... do I have a faulty component or is it driver/firmware related? I would really appreciate any help because at the moment I have a £1000+ machine that was built for gaming which can't game... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
