    Woke up to find this message appearing :(

    I have a MSI-GT680R Laptop with a GTX 460M graphics card in, all stock not over clocked was just hoping you guys had some idea of how to fix

    Thanks

    I have been looking into it and some people say adobe air can cause a problem, I play league of legends which constantly updates Adobe air could it be something to do with that?

    Downloading as we speak but the general word on other forums is that when they try to upgrade the drivers it doesnt fix anything :(

    downloading the drivers none the less

    Your driver just crashed. It should be fine with new one.

    Are you using Optimus technology?

    If so, right click on the game/program you want to run and choose 'Run with Graphics Processor' and choose the GTX460M.

    Also, if you do still have problems: I would re-install the driver you downloaded and select Custom install and choose 'Clean Install' to get rid of any old nVidia driver/software that may be conflicting.

    Yup I would follow Tiller's advice. If are still having issues, then consider reinstalling the OS or manually purging Nvidia values from the registry (always back it up before you do that).

    Worst case scenario is your video card is dying, causing the drivers to crash.
