Driver Issues

Atonement_EU · 12-23-2008 10:44 PM

So here's the issue. We all know Nvidia's latest batch of drivers just don't work with CoH. I used to be able to resolve this issue by using the 16x.xx batch but it seems that is no longer possible.

Could anyone else with a 9800GTX link me a driver that won't cause my game to crash continuously due to driver failures?

Thanks in advance!

Any help at all is appreciated.

Seem to have found a solution. The new 180.84 driver at:

Let me play for two hours so far without a single crash.

Nope sorry for the false hope. It just crashed.

I use the 177.92 drivers on a 9800GTX+ with a gfx crash about once a month (or less). All other versions that I've tried have either degraded performance or crashed more often.

Ever wondered how our costumes stay so clean and shiny given everything we put them through?

Then you need to try out Spandex Crisis (Arc ID 32943)

There's an even better solution - for me at least. The Hotfix flying around the forum solved the entire issue.

That hotfix can be found right HERE

This hotfix can be applied on computers that are running Windows Vista or Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1).

Ever since i applied that hotfix my Nvidea graphics error crash has not happened once...however i have had 4 lockup's while playing the game over the last few days. Activate base tp , zoning once , entering a mish once , all since i applied that hotfix.

Maybe unrelated but it's becoming just as annying if not more so as it takes me longer to get back into the game
