Any suggestions on video drivers for an 8800GT in vista x64? a few hours w/o lockups, when i install the latest drivers from nvidia or windows update it locks up a few minutes after loading into windows.
Yeah, i'm sure nothing is overheating. i can off a live cd, or windows xp (doing things such as play WoW or Warhammer online) and have no issues whatsoever.
Tried the driver disc from the manufacturer and it froze up shortly after running the vista experience test.
Just finished installing DX9.0c and seeing how that works. Might try the 181 driver link if the DX install works
A lot of users had similar issues with 180 series like lockups/freezing etc..,infact I had lockups with the 180.xx series all the 178/179s were fine for me however so you are not alone(nothing overclocked either).
Vista install disc is not sp1, but before i installed the video drivers i got all windows updates. I tried a 175.xx (included on the pny disc) and the 180.xx (whatever the last WHQL driver is) and the 181 before i tried the 169.xx, now i'm afraid to try any newer >< so i guess i'll just stick with the 169 for now..
