Display Driver making me Blue Screen


Kyon

Recommended Posts

The driver "nldvkkmin" or however it calls it is crashing recently. Video and things are slower but it will only Blue Screen about 4/5ths of the time when I try to view a picture, and only then. Other times it will crash but recover without Blue Screen-ing. What do I do to stop this problem?

That's not it, but i'll try that

Quick Question: How do I reinstall my display driver? LOL It's never happened to me before or to my father so he never taught me about it. And he can't now since he kicked the bucket a few years ago. So...how do I do it?

Awesome sauce. I'll try that now.

Thank You, ~=>Dark<=~, L4ugh and Asch for helping me. I think it is fixed now. If anything happens i'll be sure to inform you guys.:smile:

What does this driver go to? What is it's exact name?

If you have a register cleaner like ccleaner, I would try it as admin or maybe even in safe mode. To get into safe mode you hit F8 when windows starts to boot up. You'll have to wait till after bios has finished booting up though. If you don't know what I'm talking about then just stick with admin for now. You can really screw up your computer if you change the wrong thing in your bios.

If you have uninstalled it already you can try reinstalling it through windows update. If you are in Win vista/7 hardware drivers will show in the optional updates area. In Win XP there should be an area labeled hardware on the left side of windows update screen, unless it has changed. If it doesn't show up in windows update at all then you will need to reinstall it manually by downloading the installer from the manufactures website.

Its the nVIDIA display driver daemon, usually gets corrupted with registry edits, the easist thing you can do is to download a new driver from official website, and install it, the old driver will be automatically removed, and it might save you from seeing the BSOD again.

if its an nvidia gpu, the display driver is probably not compatible with your os...even if u have a disc with a driver for win 7/mac/linux, its not made specifically for win 7/mac/linux

i still get blue screens for random reasons with a gt 240, but by cleaning my registry and defrag my drives it surprisingly stays up a bit longer and i can have a decent comp session on it. My permanent solution would be to buy a different gpu
