BSOD 4 times since .86 came out

Glad you got your problem fixed Nikolai mate

It seems the day of driver support failing for old 8000 series cards from nvidia is finally arriving

I tried the same things as you, even more than that (read back earlier posts) and was able to solve it by going back to an older nvidia driver. I went back to geforce release 182 and that works for me, Ive been playing for a few days now without any errors. To be 100% certain I first deleted my card, restarted in safe mode, cleaned the drivers with a driver cleaner tool, installed the older driver and rebooted. Good luck!

Yeah, nv4_disp.dll is what I saw on the BSOD readout. Reading back some post, I noticed maybe you stated something about pre-ION drivers were stoping the 'sky glitch' and/to BSOD. I was going to question what version pre-ION drivers might be and you seem to have found it. I play CSS, BF2 & PR constantly, and some GTA4_MP, so rolling back some drivers shouldn't be a big issue. I'll still be able to rock the 140Fps 4xAA,4xAF. Dynamics off, everything else 'high'.

I guess if I get any issues after this, It might also be he modded X-Fi drivers for my onboard ALC889RLTech audio chip, but I've not seen an error in Events or Alerts that shows any issue with my audio drivers, just the nv_4disp.dll during BSOD and in Events and Alerts!

Thanks for the info, I'll go do that see if it works-

I'll get back to ya with my findings!

glad it works mate!

It really helps if you run driver sweeper before installing new drivers, just run it in safe mode to be sure you get everything than install your new drivers on a fresh plate so there is minimal errors.

Hi all

I have a BSOD while loading PR maps also (except the first one) and was searching for any kind of solution

Problem with X-Fi Sound Card Except Xtreme Audio

I try this and at the moment the BSOD just disappear!

1st uninstall the drivers and all the software from creative...
Restart the machine

Download and install
SB X-Fi Series Support Pack 2.0 (05/15/2009) - Creative Labs

then download and install
SB X-Fi Series driver 2.14.0025 - Prelude Beta1 - Creative Labs

Works fine for me
