My graphics card driver keeps failing (GeForce 9500GT)
I have been having more and more problems with windows lately, but this one is just too much. My screens will randomly turn off and back on. Then I see the little message saying that my graphics card driver has failed and recovered. I don't really game on my computer. Just a few emulators here and there. This keeps happening when I am listening to music. I use gforce which is a visualizer for windows media player. It will randomly slow down and then blink once or twice. I am still having major problems with the windows media department. Both Windows Media Player and Media Center will take up atleast 50% of my cpu at a time. I solved it once, but the problem is back with that one. I have been forced to use itunes while I'm using the computer and listening to music. Media Center will hang up all the time. I just want to make sure my graphics card isn't going out. Its not very old. A permanent solution to the cpu usage problem would be wonderful as well. Thanks in advanced! -Kevin
BTW: I updated to the newest driver as soon as I noticed it and that fixed it for about a week.
