Update #2.... Installed 311.06 since I read thats the most stable driver for GTX600 series and still.... freeze... I hope this isnt a hardware issue. Or could it be an issue from Razer Surround?

 

It was an issue from Razer Surround. I looked it up on the BF3 forums... Thanks all who read and helped lol. http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/forum/threadview/2832654348597039239/

 

ITS A REALLY BUGGY PIECE OF SOFTWARE. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Help someone please this is getting so frustrating. A few days ago, I was doing fine... No freezing or anything but. I decided to upgrade to the newest drivers for nvidia just to see how it would go. I didn't get a chance to test it since I had to go to school. So shut the computer down for a day... come back... Play BF3, Freezes after like 45 minutes and the sound making a continuous noise. So I read the 320 drivers really werent a hot hit for the GTX660 so I downgraded back down to 314.22. Still freezes.. I don't understand. I just got new awesome Steelseries 4H headphones and installed Razer Surround and my sound iss aweeeeesome, but i cant keep going with it freezing. Can someone help me out here? I'm going to upload the dump files.

Dont worry, the link is safe. The forum wouldnt let me upload .dmp files for some reason.

I would try just totally deleting the drivers then reinstalling

Windows 8 automatically installs 320.49. How do I change it from doing that?

 

EDIT: Nevermind, I did it. I'm going to try it. Can someone help me out with the dump file though?
