Hello everyone!
I have been getting these driver crashes every so often I put my graphics card under strenuous loads.
The drivers tend to crash when the card is at 98% - 99% usage.
System specifications:
CPU: i5 3570K stock clocks
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LP [8GB] 2×4GB 1600MHz running at 1333MHz
Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-V PRO
Graphics card: eVGA GTX 670 FTW stock clocks
PSU: Corsair HX650 650W Power supply
I have used the latest non-beta 314.22WHQL drivers from nVIDIA and the crashing still occurs.
I reverted to 310.70 and the crashing still results.
I had Windows Update detect the most recent drivers I could install for the graphics card and it only discovered 311.06 drivers, which still resulted in graphics driver crashing.
During the crash using 310.70 drivers my display will turn black and windows will prompt me that: "display driver nvidia windows kernel mode driver, version 310.70 stopped responding and has successfully recovered."
During the crash using 311.06 and 314.22 drivers my display will artifact and windows will prompt me that: "display driver nvidia windows kernel mode driver, version 311.06 stopped responding and has successfully recovered."; and "display driver nvidia windows kernel mode driver, version 314.22 stopped responding and has successfully recovered.", respectively.
During each driver reinstallation I used the Manual > Clean installation options to minimise any driver conflictions.
I have uninstalled any software I think may be conflicting with the drivers and that included Lucid Virtu MVP 1.0, although I have not uninstalled eVGA Precision X as it includes the fan control features I need to prevent my graphics card from overheating.
The temperatures of the graphics card during the times of the crash are around 55°C and as far as I know are well below my graphics card's thermal operating maximum; and is not overheating.
The temperatures of my CPU during the times of the crash are around 30°C, and never in my system's life has the CPU temperature exceeded 40°C.
If anyone knows any fixes to resolve this problem, any help is much appreciated!
