Okay so here is the scoop.
I have tried four different drivers, finally sticking to 65.73 as that gives me the fewest crashes. I have tried all kinds of tweaks to my BIOS (motherboard, not graphics card). I have had my apeture setting at every different level. I have enabled/disabled blitting, I have turned on/off v-sync, I have enabled fastwrites and disabled them. I have checked voltages, I have done everything I can possibly think to do to get this card to stop crashing to desktop or rebooting my system (blue screen of death) for three weeks. Nothing will stop this thing! It crashes in Rome:Total War, Unreal2004 demo, Call of Duty, Farcry, Postal2, and Wolfenstein Enemy Territory. Even counterstrike sometimes! For some reason Doom3 doesn't crash hardly ever though. As far as I can tell the card is working fine! Fan spins, temps are normal, running stress tests produce no artifacts, work for long periods of time. What could be doing this?
I have been getting all kinds of errors, pfn table corrupt once, irq not less or equal, NV4_mini.sys crash, nv4_disp.dll crash! Aggh! I can't take it anymore lol. Someone give me their opinion. RMA this seemingly great card that quits every game I throw at it for apparently no reason and at totally random times, or keep trying to get it working through drivers?
