    Display driver atikmdag/nvlddmkm stopped responding and has recovered

    No I know guys, I'm not trying to be a prick, but it is frustrating. NB voltage has been on auto, normal, high, and very high (those are the options I have)

    Display driver atikmdag/nvlddmkm stopped responding and has recovered

    Yes, a full run, I've let it go overnight, many times. I've let the windows memory diagnostic go, overnight, many times. Never get BSODs or any other issues from XP, it just doesn't happen, there is nothing wrong with the memory, which I think is verified when I actually try to underclock the...

    Display driver atikmdag/nvlddmkm stopped responding and has recovered

    I've tried turning down all overclocking, of course that was my first answer. It isn't a hardware fault, there's just no way Vista is able to "find" these faults. I would notice something in XP, there'd be artifacting in tests, or overheating, there'd be something that tells me there is a...

    Display driver atikmdag/nvlddmkm stopped responding and has recovered

    Yes, I knew about this, and was using Vista before I upgraded my RAM from 2x1gb sticks to 2x2gb sticks, at that point, I had installed every single update possible, installed the RAM, all hell breaks lose.

    Display driver atikmdag/nvlddmkm stopped responding and has recovered

    All right guys, since you all seem to have all the answers, let me explain why it is not hardware related, in my case. Installed Vista. 32 bit or 64 bit, doesn't really matter. Crashes. Immediately upon opening a game, even just using the desktop, crash after crash. Even with recovery...
