Is my graphics card overheating

[GreenDutchAlien]

Doesn't the dx9krnl say it has dx9 installed in stead of 11 ? Maybe stupid question, don't know much about that.

It's the revenge of the big buttons, aaaaaaaahhhhh !

After installing the nvidea drivers also make sure you install dx11 drivers, they don't come with the nvidea drivers i believe.

 

[Guest]

Oh problem, i unistalled, went to you link and it says can not install in compatible, so i went to nvidia myself and put in the details and again said the same so told it to search itself and it said it can't

 

[RussK1]

If you run dxdiag through the start menu it'll list your current installed DX version~

...if you don't have DX11 installed it can be found here:

Yeah I'm American, but European at heart... thanks for the accolades...

@Ebby,

What version of windows do you have? 7 64bit I presume.

GTX 460m...

 

[GreenDutchAlien]

European at heart ?

Sounds more and more like a faulty gpu i think.

 

[Guest]

yes 64bit, just found another driver on there i'm gonna try v285.62 5 time lucky i hope lol

 

[Guest]

download this:

...run the progran and check "Nvidia display" and click "analyse" then clean. Re-boot and re-install

 

[RussK1]

ah yeah, different driver for US and UK... weird. US 280.xx and UK 285.xx; I don't get it, politics.

[GreenDutchAlien]

Ha, thats good to know. Nevere would have guessed.

 

[Guest]

Ok so cleaned rebooted and windows reinstalled drivers upon startup without asking

Clean again and reboot... Once booted stop Windows downloading drivers via tray upon startup. You'll have an icon spinning while Windows is installing driver software. Click that and stop. Re-install NVIDIA drivers, UK of course, reboot.
