GX740 065NE, MS 1727. Screen freezing, graphic driver crashing.

Hello, i got problems with the screen freezing, graphicdriver crashing, screen even getting spiky and flimmering when trying to start games.
I used to have problem with high fan speed/noise, graphicdriver crashing, screen freeezing, BSOD and so on. Well ive been having it like this since i bought this laptop.
Anyway, so few days ago i decided to try updating the Vbios.
I updated the Vbios and i did fix the high fan speed, much lower noise.
The problems with screen freezing was increased after the Vbios update.
Alltho it seems like im not getting anymore BSOD's at least.
I have tryed both the latest graphic drivers from AMD ATI and from MSI's website, non of them solved the problem.

If you've had the problem from day one, then yes, I think an RMA sounds like a good course of action. It sounds like you've done everything you can by changing the drivers, updating the VBIOS, and so on. Only thing I can suggest is to uninstall the current graphics drivers, run >>Driver Sweeper<<, and then install the latest drivers again. I'd suggest installing the latest patches for the games you play, but if they all freeze then it's obviously not a game issue.

Boot Camp Windows 7 Black Screen After Graphic Driver Installation

Hi,
I have MacBook air (2012 model i think). I tried to install windows 7 64 bit using bootcamp. On the first windows boot and before installing boot camp drivers windows was fine. After installing bootcamp drivers and windows restart the windows came up to a black screen and stuck forever. When I uninstall graphic driver (intel HD 4000), windows is good again. Tried to reinstall different graphic drivers versions - didn't work. searched internet everywhere and didn't find any solution.
please help!

I have solved this issue now but seem to have encountered another one. I solved the above issue simply by keep on trying time and time again, partitioning the hard drive and trying to install windows 7.
Anyway, I have encountered this error: windows setup could not apply the configuration set. The WINDOWS folder cannot be found.
Please help!

CS5.0.2 causing graphics driver crash

Updated to Premiere 5.0.2 and Media Encoder 5.0.1 - when I export (inside Premiere as well as sending to Media Encoder, Premiere/Media Encoder freezes up and I get a Windows message to say that the Graphics driver has crashed and it has successfully recovered. Reverted back to Premiere 5.0.1 and can successfully export without issues. Anyone experiencing similar problems? I have latest WHQL release Nvidia driver which has not given any hassles.

Does your error message look like this?

I have the same graphics card (GTS 250) and I have had some problem as well.
Here is a thread that I started when I found issue related to the GPU and large image files: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/673072?tstart=0
Here is another thread that I have been contributing to...the person that started the thread has the same graphic card as well: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3102758
I had mixed results from the update to 5.02, but the cons out weigh the pros when the hack is considered. So, I have since decided to wait until I can afford a supported card...hoping that will help. Below is what I posted on the last forum that I provided the link to. It illustrates my results with the update and different drivers. I would love to figure out how to make the GTS 250 reliable, please post any new findings that might be helpful. Thank you.

I have found problems with the Nvidia driver 258.? on my machine. While I did gain some marginal ability to work with larger images using the GPU, I started to get frequent OpenGL error messages and crashing in After Effects with the updated driver, so I have reverted back to version 197.? and all seems to be well again.
It makes me worry using the "hack" on video jobs. The hack is fun to play with to see how well the playback can be using the GPU, but I don't want to work on time sensitive material always wondering if something I add to the timeline will cause it to crash, or worse, corrupt a project file. For me, I don't think the benefits out weigh the downside of the "hack".
I have considered using the "hack" on video only projects, but I don't know if the problems will eventually turn up on long projects or not. Most of my most recent projects have been fairly short. I do realize that my large images that have causing the crashes are huge (approx. 4300 x 2800), but in software only mode they are not a problem at all...really smooth. If I had more time, I would fine the maximum image size that I could work with without causing my system to crash, but I don't have that much time to play with it. It seems that the smaller the image, the longer it takes to make it crash, but eventually, I can always make it crash. So, I wonder if any image size could be a problem, but it just takes longer for the crash to occur?
I really wish that someone with a supported card would try some large images and run it through some testing. Once I get a supported card, my large images will be my first test. If it crashes with a supported card, I'm not going to be real happy. Some have suggested the problem may be the amount of RAM on my GTS 250, but my card has 1GB, which is about how much many of the supported cards have.
I am wondering if the GTS 250 just doesn't have enough muscle to work with the images? Anyone with a supported card want to give it a go? The time would be greatly appreciated.

I have the latest Intel Graphic Driver but sometimes, and quite randomly the driver crashes when I unsleep the tablet.
I happens about 50% of the times my tablet goes to sleep.
Detailed explanation:
The tablet goes to sleep. When I wake it either with the power button or with the front button it takes 5 seconds for the screen to go on and a ballon appears saying "Driver stopped responding and has recovered" for my "Intel Graphics Accelerator Driver for Windows 8" . And 1 out of 10 times it cannot recover: blue screen of death telling to look up igdkmd64.sys!
Does anybody know how to repair this?

T61p Graphics Driver crash on Resume from sleep, intermittent BSOD

I have a T61p type 6458-BS9 with S/N L3-xxxxx, built August 2008.BIOS version is 2.21
Every time the PC wakes up from sleep, I get a message that the graphics driver has "succesfully recovered" (i.e. it crashed). One out of every three times, the PC wakes up, but the screen stays black and I have to forcefully reboot the PC. At regular intervals, I also have a BSOD referring to the same NVidia driver.
The driver installed is the latest version on the website, 175.97 which dates back to June.
I don't play games, so the other "resolved" issue on this thread does not seem to apply.
Does anybody know how resolve this issue?

Hi,
I too have exactly the same problem with display corruption after waking from sleep (X200 7454-CTO - windows 7 X64). I have disabled the intel VT extensions in the BIOS but the problem still occurs.
I have now installed the latest display driver from intel's site (8.15.10.1986) to avoid using the Lenovo 1968 packaged driver. This means I have lost the on-screen brightness display functionality but I can live without that. I will let you know if I have more problems using this driver.
I assume this problem will get fixed at some point as presumabley those customers who ordered X200's with windows 7 preinstalled will be having the same problems?

Martin

Spotify only displays black screen after video driver crashes

Using Windows 8.1 64x, AMD 7800 series card with the latest AMD 15.4 beta drivers. This driver release is prone to crashing. Spotify, though, doesn't recover after the driver crashes and only displays a black screen. Restarting the program fixes the problem, but it shouldn't have to be restarted in the first place.

I am so sorry to hear this, was it after an ad, i should be able to help, could you also tell me which country you are based in!

Graphics driver crashing on new MBPr 15" w/ discrete graphics.

I bought the 15" MBPr w/ discrete graphics card a few days ago and installed Windows 7 via boot camp. Everything was working initially but my graphics drivers began crashing repeatedly. I restarted my computer which stopped it for a while. In this time I did things from school work to play video games without any problems. The next day after starting it up again the drivers began crashing over and over again. Has anyone else had this issue? I tried updating the graphics driver but received an error saying the card i

HELP! Graphics driver crash

Hi there, i just build myself a new PC. This is my first 64 bit so i didn't expect it to go smoothly, that's why i am here :(.
The problem i seem to have is whenever i try to install my graphics drivers, after it reboots the graphics card displays up to the "windows XP" loading boot screen, then just goes completely blank.
I tried using a different monitor, and using the secondary graphics port on the gfx card, to no avail. Anyone know what's going on? :(

W520 Screen Freeze/Distortion and Crash

My experience with the W520 is now gone into the depressing category. This is my SECOND machine from Lenovo. My first machine would freeze and then immediately shut-down at random interval as documented with other in this lengthy thread:
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/W-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/W520-shuts-off-intermittently-no-BSOD-or-shut-...
Now, 3 weeks after the new machine was working great... I've gotten three crashes within the last 24 hours. Different than the ones before. This time, the external monitors go haywire and display these funky patterns and colors. When this happens the entire machine is frozen, excpet the mouse still moves around. The only thing I can do is a hard power off. Obviously after that hard power off, Windows detects an improper shut down. I'm not running any software that I hadn't been running for the previous 3 weeks. In this case, Excel, Skype, Ninja Trader (day trading software), Chrome, OneNote, Adobe Reader, Windows Explorer, and Picture Viewer.
Here is a link to the YouTube video I captured after the last of the three crashes:

Also here are the static photos I took:

Any help would be appreciated... Of course, I'll be in contact with Lenovo....
Thanks,

@ToddPMan
You should really consider taking the money and run from Lenovo as far as possible
This W520 case is ridiculous , it's 21 pages almost 3 months of the post and the Lenovo doesn't have a clue whats wrong.
Then there is 9 pages thread about SSD issues, and 9 pages about speed step not working about battery, they ship Laptop with damaged ST9500420AS Hard drives , and it's look like that RAM modules aren't paired properly. For me it's a lot of issues for top notch Lenovo W520 for more then 2000$ which is not reliable at all, performance is not so brilliant.
I think all of has something more important things to do then troubleshoot their laptops...
I don't see on the forums Lenovo taking really active part in our case, they don't even appolagise for inconvience and trouble we have.
At this point You can consider 3 companies Dell, Toshiba and eventually Sony.

Firefox 5 is causing my Intel graphics driver (it is up to date) to crash - never had a problem with Firefox 2, 3, or 4.

Having repeated intel graphics accelerator driver crashes - screen goes black and it recovers - get little error message screen as what happened. Happens frequently. I have done driver scans and everything is up to date. Did not have this problem with firefox 4

This is my problem too. I saw a post about a computer crash above. I found if I wait (various periods of time) the computer restores and firefox stays broken. Although being impatient, I would reboot the computer anyway.
I HAVE SWITCHED TO CHROME until this problem is resolved. You can import all your bookmarks and passwords and live happily ever after. When and If this problem is resolved, I may switch back (been loyal for years and years).. if it takes too long, I'll probably just stay with chrome as my new browser.
I have also seen a similar screen to the "BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH" that scared me, but it was a graphic driver crash warning (windows 7) nothing more. However I did pee myself a little.
For a while I thought my graphics card was overheating or something, but found the crashes coincided with firefox boot. That's when I discovered this thread. Thanks folks for posting.

Qosmio X505-Q870 Graphics Constantly Crashing

Hey guys,
I purchased by laptop mid-March and since late-April, this odd behavior has been occuring.
So, while I'm doing work on the laptop (regardless of game, autocad, or just document work) sometimes, the screen will go black, it'll come back on without any card running, go black, and then come back up with a little notice at the right bottom corner of Windows saying that the NVIDIA graphic driver crashed and has been restored.
Anyone know what's up?
I paid 1.5 grand for this and am worried that there may be a problem with the graphic card.
Thanks.
OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit

I still have this same problem. If you get any resolution to this, please let me know.

T510 Video driver - Screen freezes

Hi
I have been using T510 with Windows 7 Pro for about couple of years. For the past couple of days the laptop screen freezes up and even though there is no activity. There is no hard drive activity when this happens either. When I restart the machine it shows a blank screen as soon as the Windows OS starts up. Tried upgrading the video driver as well as restored an image from two months ago. The only way to get back in is to restart the machine in safe mode and try to change the display settings.
My guess is that the video card needs to be replaced but I believe the video card is integrated into the mother board. Would someone be able to give me an estimate on how much it would cost to replace the motherboard?
Thank you

Changing the video drive which has been working fine all along is the wrong approach.
I sounds as though the OS has crash and stalled.
Failing memory can do this (use the Microsoft memory diagnostics which is on the DVD). Also check the event log for criticle events on this. Bad power and overheating could also manifest in this way although its not likely a CPU overheat unless marginal since that usually foreces a reboot and/or BSOD. The GPU may be running too hot after a while. Clearing the cooling channel (many threads on this), compress aerosol can and vacumn nozzle will do it blowing air in reverse though and sucking from the fan end (stall the fan blades so they don't over spin.
The notebook should be off and remove battery if you're using a paper clip as I've done in case you short something otherwise.

Screen freeze after installing VGA driver on z77a-g43

Hello,
my computer with the components is described above.
Previously it was working well. A few days ago, I have installed some windows updates and updated to the latest bios through the msi live update software. After that, the computer has the problem that the display suddenly suspends and I have to restart it through the hardware reset.
Then I reinstalled the OS, I found that with the windows VGA driver dated 2010, it works fine with the transparent theme disabled. But when I try to install the latest driver( no matter from amd or windows update), it will cause the sudden screen freeze problem.
I cannot remember which version it was before I upgrade the bios. I tried to clear the CMOS and it does not help.
Any idea ?
Thx for your help

Not really sure how to proceed. The good news is with the W7 64 Bit, all 8GB of RAM are now fully supported. As a suggestion, do you have a friend, relative, or coworker that may have a VGA you can possibly test with? nVidia or AMD? A poorly written driver can cause problems as you seem to be finding out, or possibly something is wrong with the VGA itself? Along the lines of testing other VGA's in your machine, maybe test your VGA in other machines?
I think there is something wrong with the software of the motherboard. the os went to black screen even when i am using the integrated graphics only with win7 64bit. the os works well before i install the dedicated vga driver downloaded from msi official website. after i installed the vga driver, the screen went to black after the windows start screen.
moreover, i think the fresh os installation does not clear all the previous memories. after i changed the device installation settings to never install driver from win update, every time i reinstall the os the setting remained unchanged. I thought the default setting was always install from win update.
the brand of the 6970 is HIS. http://www.hisdigital.com/un/product2-577.shtml
btw, is there any way that i can give more details on this problem so that maybe you can understand better?
thanks very much.

Black screen after the installation of the graphics driver

Hello,
- Recently I bought a 'GT 610' graphics card to replace the old broken one,
- after the assembly one short beep was audible during system reboot (=OK),
- a default windows graphics driver was installed by Windows Vista,
- screen resolution manually set at native screen resolution (1280 x 1024),
- (youtube movies as well as flash player worked fine),
- the installation of the (most recent) nVidia driver went smoothly (the old driver on CD did not!),
- after the nVidia driver installation the system restarted itself to activate the driver.
So far so good.
- Unfortunately after rebooting the screen got black and remained black,
- no log-in screen, only the typical Windows start-up screen with the green progression bars was temporarily visible,
- in safe mode I had to disable the nVidia driver to restart Windows in normal mode.
- At this moment I can use my computer for desktop application like MS Office, email or internet browsing, not for video editing or gaming.
Question: How to enable the nVidia driver to use the graphics card's full capacity?
Thanks.

- Yes, the GT610 is a genuine MSI product bought in the local computer store.
- I suppose my board (Vendor = Micro-Star International Co., Ltd --> also MSI) is an OEM product. I don't have any hard evidence, but on the internet I've found some independent threads claiming the MS-7318 is an OEM product indeed.
- Both VGA cards (nVidia GeForce 6700XL/7650GS based) are Medion products. They have their own Medion drivers. Nevertheless in the past latest downloaded nVidia drivers seemed to work fine when installing them on these Medion PC's.
- MS Windows XP SP2 on the provided recovery DVD is a Medion OEM product for sure.
- My Computer model = Medion Akoya MD 8818
- Test computer = Medion Akoya MD 8818 (same board, same PSU, same graphics card, same ...) --> But a few months ago, the original graphics card of this test PC also crashed and had to be replaced!! Weak cards these 7650GS. So, the 6700XL is a replacement for the original Medion GeForce 7650 GS in the test PC. Fortunately I could use the graphics card (6700XL) of a 1 year older Medion Akoya MD 8800 PC. This card works fine.
