NVIDIA 8800GT crash
 

I have CoD ver. 1.00.14413 (latest as of now).
8800GT with 0.5G RAM.
After a few minutes in game, the screen goes black, but the game continues to run. I can hit ESC and leave the game.
In the event viewer of my Win7 Ultimate 64-bit (4G RAM), the crash message says: "Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered."
I tried 4 different versions of NVIDIA drivers - no help.
Changing the resolution and complexity of the game doesn't help either.
I searched the net, forums, etc. - but found nothing that helps. :(
Does anybody have any idea what can be done? :confused:
8800GT is not a bad or outdated card...
PLEEEEEEEEEASE - DO NOT POST CONDOLENCES OR DUMB QUESTIONS!
THANK YOU!!!

Hey Happy.

Did you happen to overclock your card using something like nTune by chance?

EDIT: See you tried several driver versions so skip that.

Tried disabling Aero? You can do it by just right clicking your desktop, personalize and choose a non aero basic windows theme.

Can you see your GPU temps when you are gaming? Is it running very hot or normal?

Thanks for rapid reply.
My card isn't overclocked.
I'll try to disable Aero - although I don's see any relevance.
I'll double-check my card, and maybe will try to cool it more.

Heya, no probs at all. I take it you did google your error right?

Google: Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered

It seems you´re hardly unique with that error and it is unrelated to CoD specifically so browsing through solutions others used might help you.

Hope you manage to get it sorted.

Yes, now I'm sure it's not CoD-specific problem. Looks like my video card is going downhill... :(
Anyway, many thanks.
