Sudden, and regular crash issue using brushes/Wacom Cintiq

Question

I'm using Photoshop CS5 Extended 64bit (12.0.4) on Win7 Professional (64 bit) and recently have had an issue using my Cintiq 12WX tablet in that using the brush with the tablet (whether I'm using the tablet as the monitor, or my laptop as the monitor) causes Photoshop to crash, usually within the first 30 seconds of usage.  This has become so regular that I expect it to crash and no longer can trust it to use, but at the same time I depend on its use to get work done, so an expedient solution is absolutely necessary.  Does not crash if I use brush with a mouse, but that's not exactly a solution either, as you can imagine.  I have been using this tablet with this Photoshop for a long time without incident, and I can think of no changes to the system I've made in the period when this began happening.
All drivers for the Cintiq are current.
The entirety of the crash report reads as follows:
Problem Event Name:    APPCRASH

Can anyone recognize these symptoms and recommend a course of action?
Any and all possible expedient help with this issue will be appreciated.  Thanks in advance...

Answer 1

Did not update it actively.  Not sure if I remember if I have that particular driver set to update automatically or not.
What I have done, is turn off OpenGL feature in preferences, as searching for others with similar problems might have suggested that would work, but sadly it hasn't.
Will check on the status of the graphics driver (It's NVidia QuadroFX) and if it was updated recently without me knowing.
