**THE NVIDIA DRIVERS THREAD**

I just switched to Win 8 on a fresh install, 326.19 is still giving me the same issue as it did under Win 7: terrible framerates (at least with Valley and Heaven, and the Windows performance index was also affected ... not tried any games). Back to 320.18 and all is fine. I do wonder what in my system may be causing this ...
 
Seems I was wrong in blaming the 320.49s for flashing/incorrect depth parts in Metro Last Night 3D Vision, seems that it's a game bug, changing tessellation to very high sorts it out nicely. I tried it with all versions from 320.49 to 326.29 and got the same results.
 
Spoke too soon...

Came back to my PC just now and the UI was slow, after about a minute the screen refreshed and got the above message. Everything is fine again but clearly the drivers are buggy still.

I've been having the same ! Check to see what your CPU is loading at ??? I've found its been hitting 100% & thats why I get low FPS & performance...
 
That's what mrk said :eek:
I suppose the last time I posted I didn't use the drivers to their full extent, now I have and seen the error like having lr open with a video paused and minimised going away for half the day and then coming back to game. Those that don't do much other than surf the net probably don't see any problems.

I'll check out the new betas tonight I think... Lol.
 
36 hours idle may well be the bug I experienced in the last drivers as my machine is never turned off and these bugs only started with the new drivers when I got this 780.

Exact same circumstances as me, never turned off and since my 780 and 320.xx+ drivers I get an assortment of problems.
