• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

================================================

So, it only happens when I am in a game, it will randomly happen if I am watching a streaming video, but veerrryyy rarely...

Its not just a windows 7 thing I don't think, cause it was doing it in vista as well...

Just as an example, I can get MW2 to load fine (it does it in TF2 and 3dMark), can get into a game, some times I can even play a few rounds, then my textures start turning crazy colors and eventually screen goes black...I kill the task, and my little friend down at the bottom says "Display driver has stopped working"

I really don't know what else to do...I will be a sad panda if my card is dying...

Oh, and I don't think its a temp issue cause I have never had the problem before and my computer hasn't changed for like almost a year...

I have done all the normal stuff...updated driver, gone to an older driver,re-installed games, re-installed OS's heh...

What Gives~ Please help :D
 
I had precisely the same problem when my video card was dying.

Games would crash after a few minutes and WMP would crash occasionally.

Sucks.
