    I cannot find a driver that will run league of legends and Dragons Nest well. I tried the newest drivers from navidia. 275.33 and the newest beta driver was well 280.something. When I use them with league of legends and i alt tab away then alt tab back in it says my driver is out dated and closes the game. Dragon nest just crashes and restarts my computer on 275.33 and 280.xx actually blue screens during the game. I have the latest bios with the alienware m11x R2 with an i7. If anyone knows of a driver working for both of these let me know.

    I have this issue and have not been able to solve it, besides not alt tabbing when in a game anymore

    Yeah, same issue with LoL, try 260.99. Some games might not work or be effected negatively by that driver though (PES, GTA IV)

    The problem the OP mentioned is caused by the 270.xx series drivers and onwards, I thought Riot would have fixed this by now.

    I play LoL extensively and use 266.38 I believe, and it runs flawlessly.
    Will report the exact driver once I get home from work, but I know older drivers do not cause the alt+tab problem with LoL.
