Since the security patch for Nvidia GTX drivers the PC has been having issues, the system hangs or crashes and restarts at random intervals. I have installed the latest drivers twice now and yet it is still happening. Any ideas? (GTX780Ti)

The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.

A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error. It is suggested you look for an update for the following driver: nvlddmkm.sys (NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 430.86 , NVIDIA Corporation).

I read a different forum that a dirty heatsink can show as driver errors, so I pulled it out and gave it a good old clean. There was plenty of very fine powdery dust on the fan itself, and on the heatsink, so we will see now if that was the problem.
