8600 GT Sli Failing
Guys i need help fast.
On my workstation I'm running vista ultimate x86 on Core 2 Duo E6600, 2 GB RAM, 2x Albatron 8600 GT 256 in sli mode. So few days ago i downloaded new nvida WHQL driver from MS update and from then my screen frequently turns black and i see my mouse for few sec and than my lcd starts looking for signal, second after vista is back on screen and i receive a message "Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered.". I tried to rollback to my old driver but my situation remains unchanged. I believe this is not application based because it happens to me randomly. Even happened to me few times now while the only thing I'm running is IE. Help me please! Thanks in advanced Mišo

Get the latest WHQL drivers(162.22) or the latest Beta drivers(163.11) from
the NVIDIA Website and follow the instructions for removing the old drivers and installing the new ones. The drivers from NVIDIA are most likely newer then the ones from MS WinUpdate.

Thanks, so i tried updating to 162,22 WHQL and to 163.11 Beta. On both
drivers i have noticed that this crashes only happen while sli mode is active. Any other solutions? I'm running that configuration on ECS NF650iSLIT-A.

Read the release notes for the current release notes in detail looking for
references to SLI mode with your card. "mzmiric5" wrote in message ... Thanks, so i tried updating to 162,22 WHQL and to 163.11 Beta.

8600 GT Sli Failing
I went into BIOS and disabled "Intel C-State Tech". Also I set all RAM speeds to Auto even though the motherboard (P5Q-Pro) select slower speeds than specified on the RAM itself. I don't know if the RAM settings matter, but these two changes solved the problem. Probably C-State is the real problem. :geek: -- vista_user
