Running vista 64, installed boinc/seti yesterday with the newest drivers from nvidia. Cuda working good, but the problem is the video driver is crashing and recovering. Anyone else having this trouble? ID: 909698 ·

Might be the card, might be the driver, not sure. ID: 909964 ·

My video driver also kept crashing when using 186.18. I have an 8800GTX and am using XP SP3. I could not even play videos with 186.18 installed. I have reverted to 182.50 driver. ID: 910051 ·

Last modified: 25 Jun 2009, 4:02:54 UTC I assume everyone is doing a clean install of video drivers by 1st removing the old drivers and folders, then rebooting and installing the new ones? My system: P4 CPU 3.20GHz(2 processors) NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 (895MB) driver: 18618 Microsoft Windows XP Professional x86 Edition, Service Pack 3, (05.01.2600.00) With the Cuda 2.0 and seems to be running great.
