Nvidia drivers crashing

[Plastictree]

Just a couple games. Saints Row 3, and BF3. Everytime I try to load into the game, my nvidia drivers just crash. Running a 560, normal clocks.

Roll back.

If you don't need them, Try reinstalling drivers without audio drivers.

Roll back.

Stop, drop and roll to avoid a fiery death!

[Plastictree]

Roll back.

I just blue screened. Instead of crashing drivers, I got BSOD. Well, windows 8 version which is watchdog violation

Resident evil 5 is the same. Directx 9 works but lags like a bitch in saints row. I've cleaned my registry, repaired c++, reinstalled directx, normal drivers, beta drivers, 314.22 drivers, reset profiles for nvidia, ultra low in game settings. Crashing during load screen, crash while loading saves, and blue screens all over the fuckin place. The last thing I need is a bad card

Wasplaying grid, and my fps was crap, felt like  10-15. Idk what's going on here. I'm idling around 55 degrees. It's an asus dcu2 560

As you said you blue screened, could you upload the dump files as detailed in this thread (assuming Windows8 works the same, which I presume)

Upload the dump files from C:\Windows\Minidump in a compressed archive (.zip etc) to the forum using the "Attach Files" button under the editor. This allows us to read the error messages and diagnose the problem effectively and quickly.

It probably won't give us any new details, but it's still good to be able to take a look at more in depth evidence.

There's only one file, and it won't let me open it, or zip it up, or anything, all i can do is move it

can you copy the folder to somewhere else (like documents) then zip it from there?

Internet was out last night, got bored and re installed windows. That fixed it. So I guess it was just a software problem in the first place

Hope it works. Often it is a software problem, either fixed by reinstalling the drivers or windows. I guess when you're bored...
