I wonder if anyone has had issues with Dawn of War 2 and their GTX460?
I have just recently purchased a Gigabyte GeForce GTX 460 OC 1024MB, have played a few games and don't seem to have any issues, including Aion, TF2, and Batman AA and in all these games I can run on full with seemingly no issues, but shortly into a game of DoW2 I get a black screen for a few seconds and then the screen recovers. I can see in the event viewer that the I have an error "Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered."
I have so far tried drivers 258.96 and 260.63 the latter being better than the first, I have installed them using driver sweeper both times.
I am at a loss at what to do, it seems others are having the same issues on the Dow2 community site and no apparent fix. I am hoping this is a driver issue or something with the game and not the card, I don't want to send it back because its a bug in driver/game. Its also very annoying as DoW2 is one of my favourite multiplayer games. Is there anywhere on the web that shows if Nvidia knows there is a bug in any current drivers that can be referenced?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
