NVIDIA Driver stops responding, ID 1033

[0kensin0]

Please help me, I am at my wits end. This pops up whenever I:

- Play games casually.

- Trying to view an image or a video

- Start a game.

Here is the problem details:

My rig is a new one with spec as follows:

Main: MSI H81 - E33
Chip: Intel G2030
Card: Nvidia GTX650

I've tried to:

- Use onboard card, same problems, just not as frequent.

- Use the card on another rig: works fine

- Re install windows, 3 times, it crashed even with a fresh install.

- Tried MS hot fix, and tried switching between different versions of driver. None worked.

I don't know what to do anymore. T_T

If onboard video is having issues even after 3 Windows setups without the nVidia card installed, that points to a hardware issue, motherboard, RAM maybe, could be CPU although that is rarer. Is anything overclocked? If it is, reset to defaults and check again. If not, try different RAM first, then motherboard.

I've replaced the RAM, it is not the cause.

May be I will try the mother board next.
