    Tried a different set of drivers from nvidia or laptopvideo2go that isn't too recent? Sometimes very new drivers dislike certain games.

    What kind of computer and specs do you have?

    I had an HP dv9000t with an nVidia 7600go that burned out. Before it burned, it constantly kept giving me the nvlddmkm message.

    At first it happened rarely during games and then got worse and worse. I had to disable the GPU and run this 17" screen in VGA 1024x768 lol.

    Hope that's not happening to you cause if so, your only option is a new laptop.
