Hi all

I have some major problem since a while, i've been trying to get some answers about this on different forums but none of them worked so i thought maby you could help me out.


My specs first:
Motherboard:
ASUSTeK Computer INC. M4A88T-M/USB3 (AM3)
Ram: 2x4 (8) Muschkin
Video: nvidia geforce 440 gt
Processor: AMD Phenom 2 x4 quadcore

Now for the problem:


The problem is when i play games it doesn't matter wich video i use ..

My nvidia pci express is constantly giving kernel driver errors my display goes black and goes in sleepymode and comes back and tells me my drivers has stopped working and has recoverd now i no my videocard isin't the best there is lol but i've removed the card from my pc and now im on my onboard ATI radeon 4200 series

But this also gives the same message after some playing about 5 minutes or so i don't know what is going on but its not my graphics that are corrupted i dont know whats wrong with my config but it aint right i did so many things to fix it..

So far no luck yet maby you guys can help me out

Thanks in advanced..

Cheers

Lets start from the top...

1. Install all latest drivers for your mobo from Asus

2. un-install current driver for Nvidia GPU...all the stuff that goes with it from with in the add/remove programs list.

3. once the above two are done...install MemTest86+ and run...to verifiy ram is OK.

4. run full scans for AV and malware (you can do this first).

You need to run malwarebytes, adware, Ccleaner, Spybot S&D, SuperAntiSpyware. These are all free....not one malware app will find everything. This includes paid versions such as yours. You'll be surprised at the end results.

Now that you filled out your system specs....I see your running windows enterprise. If that's the case your mobo only supports XP, Vist and 7. However it does list an option as "others". In the others, there are no drivers to download that I can see, just a BIOS.

This may very well be your problem.

Hi
I don't know if it helps, but
- If you have installed catalyst 12.1 version (latest) try to downgrade it to older version (i.e. 11.9).
- See your BIOS on HDD handling try IDE instead of AHCI (though it more advanced)
Just curious if it works.

Kevin

May I ask why are you running the Enterprise version?
Did you get your install media from a reliable source?
Is this a recent problem or has it always done it?

You don't have to run Enterprise to get 64 bit support. All versions except Starter are available in 32 and 64 bit. Enterprise is for Business and not meant for home use and that made me wonder why you were using it and where you got it from. If it wasn't obtained from a reliable source it could have been altered and that might explained some of your issues. Anyway, I think you have it solved now, so enjoy your games.
