random crash error with display driver, please help - newtodolphin - 03-08-2010

Hello, I randomly get this crash error, sometimes with nsmb, the error is right away with crystal bearer. Can anyone help? I'm using r5135 window 7x82, athlon 620, gt 240.

Is your card working correctly on demanding games ? Make sure it's not overheating.

Also, have you messed up any settings in Nvidia control panel ? Reset to defaults.

Update directx and when Nvidia releases new drivers, install them, you could also try older ones.

It's the same card I use when I was running xp and I didnt have this problem with nsmb, it's only happening with window 7. I did update directx and driver.

I get the same error , i have gt 240 with latest drivers , windows 7 32 bit, other people who own gt 240 also have this problem , sometimes my whole pc crashes or i just get black screen with "display driver has recovered" message. Dolphin v 2.0 RC 1 doesn't fix it. It doesn't matter if i use Direct3D9 or opengl plugin.

I googled the issue and apparently there are lot of people out there having the same issue and the general opinion is the nvidia driver and window 7. I guess there's nothing to do until nvidia fix the issue.
