geforce 650 ti boost - random 116 BSOD within several different games
Hey everyone :)
So I have a Geforce 650 TI Boost since October or so. First I used it until March this year, I always got a BSOD with the error code 116 (driver issue) in nearly every game I play (from Sims3, SimCity, TERA, ESO) except GW2 (strange, but I don't know why).
It was so frustrating that I decided (around March) to switch back to my old Radeon HD 4870, because I tried everything I found (windows update to the last possible, tried every driver version I could find, one of them more than one year old, installed them in safe mode and stuff, nothing worked.)
Due to the fact, that I got myself a Wacom Cintiq Graphic Tablet, and my Radeon is so old, that it doesn't have a HDMI port, I choose to give my Geforce a new try, maybe two months of driver development could help me.
Everything worked fine for about... two weeks (changed the card around 18th june) I could play everything (from the games mentioned to some new) but, since yesterday no game lasts long, and again, it's the 116 bluescreen.
I got the newest driver (from 26th may, according to the download page) I also updated my windows today, I can't play anything, from really simple games like Plague Inc. no Sims, none of my RPGs (including Skyrim and Mount and Blade).
I don't want to spend another 150 to 250 Bucks on new Hardware (wether it's a other Graphics Card or another mainboard). I want this to work, because I was so happy when it first run two weeks without problems.
additional I can say, (but I don't know if it is of any help) that I can watch youtube videos / dvds and work on photoshop without any problems , but at the point when I start a game... I can just play for ~ 20 to 30 minutes
I zipped and attached the last 4 occurances from yesterday... thanks for any help!
my system:
Mainboard Asus P8Z68V_LE
12 GB Ram (3 modules with 4 gb, one freshly bought last week, other two tested a couple of months ago)
Intel i5 2500
Geforce 650 Ti Boost, driver Version 331.65
Win 7 , 64 x Bit version, everything updated with today (exactly half an hour ago or so)
I am on the edge of desperation.
Anyone wanna help me ?
best regards :)
