I'm assuming you mean you updated the video card drivers? If so, and you're still crashing, we'll need to roll back your realtek lan driver. Open up the device manager, (click the start button, then right click "computer" and select "properties"... when the System panel opens up click on "Device Manager" in the upper left corner). Once the Device manager is open, find and dbl click "network adapters". If you have a Realtek PCIe driver in there, right click it and select "properties". Once the properties panel is open select the "driver" tab. Then click "Roll Back Driver". You'll be prompted to reboot. Before you reboot, you'll need to check how your windows update manager is set up. If it's set to full auto, it'll just re-install the conflicting lan driver and undo your roll-back. So go back to the "system" panel and click on "windows update" in the bottom left corner. Once in the windows update panel click "change settings". I set mine up to automatically check for and download updates but to let me decide which ones to install. If you don't feel comfortable having to manually install updates, you might can leave Important updates set to automatic and just un-check "give me recommended updates the same way I receive important updates" under "recommended updates". I'm not totally sure this will keep window from re-installing the lan driver update, but it should since it's listed as an "optional" update.Hello aphellyon. It is definitely the nvlddmkm.sys thing. I'm not very technical with this stuff, but with very clear instructions..... I can do it.
I updated the drivers a few days ago, and so far so good. But I haven't watched video or anything yet. I also turned up the speed on my cooling fans.
Any help is much appreciated.

Good luck... hope this helps. And sorry if my instructions were a bit too detailed... wasn't sure what your experience level was and so I erred on the side of caution.
