| Re: BSOD whilst playing FEAR Well, still no go... Barely lasts 15 min... Took it down to stock 650/950, and it still did it. Turned off dual monitors whilst at stock: still did it. And just this last time forced to do a system restore to a day ago, because it messed some other stuff up... *sigh* getting quite irritating..

| Re: BSOD whilst playing FEAR Well sadly i can not find any info on this. There is no forum postings of these issues or anything where the drivers are to say if FEAR is know for having known issues with the drivers.
The only thing i do know is that you must be using the most recent Beta Drivers as they only have the 169.25 drivers on the site for download.

Was happening with those drivers though, as well. Has been doing it with earlier drivers =\. So that's why I decided to update to the newest drivers.
Also, after I did the system restore.. it made duplicate files...is it ok to delete those or should I leave them? Like, there's duplicate files for my video card drivers.

| Re: BSOD whilst playing FEAR I would delete them and also run Driver Cleaner Pro Driver Cleaner Professional download from Guru3D.com
Remove all the nvidia drivers and just start with the Beta Drivers. See if that does anything.

| Re: BSOD whilst playing FEAR Well my thoughts is that the old drivers are somehow effecting the Beta drivers. I know that it is alway recommended to remove the old drivers to prevent conflict. At elast this way if you go this route you can say for sure it is a driver issue.

| Re: BSOD whilst playing FEAR Ok, well I went through DCP, and reinstalled my drivers. Had to reactivate Windows for some reason though, which seems odd to me, since all I did was uninstall/reinstall my GPU lol. I may just try out my artifact test in ATiTool...if that passes, I'll try out FEAR I suppose. Hopefully it works -.-
Thanks for all the help btw, Mak, I appreciate it.

| Re: BSOD whilst playing FEAR Well, that sucks.
Ran ATiTool artifacting for about 20 minutes straight. No errors. Played FEAR for about 25-30 minutes...and 3 minutes till the end of a match *bam* artifacting/froze. I wonder if reducing the quality of the actual game will help... *sigh* I'm starting to get desperate >.<
