Nvidia 327.23 driver crash

[tS_kStin]

So I was just playing BF3 and the display driver crashed. Any way to fix this or just deal with it?

you can roll back to the older driver.  I played about 3 hours of BF3 today on the same driver and did not have an issue

Well this is the first time it has happened in 55hrs of BF3. And this was the first game .

Whatever tech is different from the 680 to the 780 is probably the cause GPU BOOST 2.0 maybe who knows if you have to play and it doesn't stop roll back the driver if that fixes it then wait a week or two then install again i've done it before.

I do not really want to roll back cuz wasn't the last drivers like really bad for GPUs and wrecked them?

I am using the same driver and my game just crashed in Saints Row so there seems to be something wrong with the driver...

That was for older cards mostly 560Ti's and GPUs that couldn't handle the optimization

All the drivers for the last year have had issues.

 

327.23 has so many issues I've lost count of them.

 

Desktop Freezing

mouse going wonky

Stuttering

black screens

BSOD

Flash video skipping and freezing

 

And many more listed on the Nvidia forums.

 

I had a working driver going but I forgot which one it was before I attempted to use the 327.33 disaster.

 

Nividia is trying to dethrone AMD for crappy drivers king.

 

500 series cards seem to be suffering the most though.

You can also try doing a completely clean install of the driver. I.e. removing the driver and installing it again.

Yeah Def just roll back and give it a week or two this isn't the first time or will be the last stuff like this happens.

Huh and mine has never crashed in saints row lol.

327.33 has so many issues I've lost count of them.

 

Desktop Freezing

Stuttering

BSOD

Just with the 780 I have to use new drivers.

Yeah, I do that on every update tho but I guess I can try that.

You both have 700 series cards possible it just relates to those cards who knows

[Titanicium]

Feel you bro My 780 wouldn't even work with a older driver so I am stuck with this shit...

[jbr]

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

 

Stick with working drivers and stay there, resist the urge to update.

[tS_kStin]

Yeah I just hope they figure out their stuff and put in the game recording thing that I forgot the name of soon.

Yeah just I like new fancy things (hence the 780)...

That is possible, maybe cuz they are still kinda new they have to figure out stuff.

[Titanicium]

I guess you are talking about Shadowplay?

 

I don't really care for game recording myself but that my screen goes blank and me having to reboot the computer cause a F****** driver is just sad when I also lost 3 hours of unsaved gameplay

I guess we can comfort ourselfs with all the shit that will happen in the start for R9 series AMD owners

Yeah I totally know what you mean. I just do not want to use fraps or dxtory and fill up me HDD with unnecessary files for days.

Lol true that. Not to hate on AMD but it will happen, almost guarantee it.

[Titanicium]

Lol true that. Not to hate on AMD but it will happen, almost guarantee it.

 

Certainly. Just look at things like extreme microstutter on their dual GPU cards in the past and how long time that took to slightly improve

 

 

I see no reason to hate on AMD myself either but generally saying (other than this crappy driver shit) nVidia seems to be more reliable and better then AMD...

[AraSarkisyan]

Everyone keeps complaining about AMD's drivers when Nvidia's knew drivers have just been, well.....
