    I have a 1 week old x7200 I got from Xotipic and it worked great for the first few days. Today I ripped a few movies and a few Blue ray movies temps never got over 79c on cpu the gpu might have hit 40c. And I had Microsoft fix some problems with my office they had to do the whole take over the desktop thing. Few hrs later I started receiving this "Display driver has stopped working and has recovered. Display Driver NVIDA Windows Kernel Mode Driver Version, 265.77 Stopped responding and successfully recovered". Cant even pay Dragon age II just quits and even get a digital looking blue color on the start up screen. I have a CPU 960 and GPU GTX 485. Any one else having this problem?

    You might have a faulty GPU. I would contact Xoticpc.

    are you getting a BSOD as certain nvidia drivers dont seem to like some gpu's especially sli setup.
    hopefully the next whql from nvidia will fully support the newest cards.

    If you are overclocking, reset back to stock.

    That sucks but look on the bright side. You won't have to dish out $$$ for a new GPU.
