nvlddmkm.sys Blue Screen after a minute or so of gameplay
Hi,
My recently purchased Laptop, a Lenovo IdeaPad v570 (1066CLU), has been having problems with the display driver.
After a minute or so of gameplay using the NVIDIA driver, my audio starts to stutter for a few seconds, and finally, it blue screens with "Attempt to reset the display driver and recover from timeout failed", and something about nvlddmkm.sys. Sometimes the BSoD doesn't even show up. I tried downgrading to the Lenovo recommended driver from the latest build, but I'm still having the same issue.
On some occasions, it doesn't BSoD, so I can alt-tab and see the message:
"Display Driver stopped responding and has recovered".
Even if games are running smoothly, they still have issues. One example is Team Fortress 2, but If I disable the NVIDIA driver in Device Manager, the Intel one works fine, with a worse framerate. Pretty weird. I have both the Intel HD Graphics 3000 and GeForce 525M driver versions supplied by the manufacturer (Lenovo).
I attatched my Diagnosis using the Seven Forums diagnostics tool. If you can help, it'd be much appreciated.
Any help or possible solutions are appreciated.
