    There is... They work with ALL recent (last few years) nVidia GPU's. There are instructions. Follow them. Install.

    This might be a Windows caused driver issue.
    What I had - connect Cannon 400D to laptop, switch on - works fine.
    Later on, connect camera, switch it on and then the computer crashes.

    In the meantime I had installed a Windows Update...

    You might just want to reinstal the driver you have in case Windows messed with it.
