    Yesterday I received my aspire 5920G, and I am very happy with it. It plays all my games very well.

    Untill I installed Halo 2. The game loads up, and I can play it fine. But after a reboot of my system, halo 2 gives me a BSOD when loading, and my laptop restarts, and windows says it's the nvidia driver, but that there is no solution avaible at the moment. :mad:

    So I uninstalled Halo 2, and then reinstalled it. Again I can play it fine, but after a reboot, it gives me the same BSOD. :(

    I am using the stock nvidia drivers that came with my laptop. Anyone knows a way to fix this??

    I've now downloaded, and installed the 158.45 drivers and am now reinstalling halo 2 (this driver seems to have the fewest bugs)

    If this one doesn't wotk, I'll try the 162.18 drivers

    Just one question does the hibernation work with these drivers?

    EDIT:

    The 158.45 drivers cause my laptop to restart even when playing after install, I'm now giong to download the 162.18 drivers and see if they work well for halo 2.
