BSOD's involving NV4dsp

[jradmin]

I've had a 6800GT card for almost a year now, and atleast once a day I get a BSOD involving the friggin driver file nv4dsp. I've DL'd driver after driver to fix this thing (yeah, I do uninstall and use DriverCleaner3) and its only wanting to hit a BSOD when I'm logging out of Star Wars Galaxies.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

sorry for the late reply, but jw what operating system are you using?

Sorry for my own late responces, was out of town with my GF.

My OS is winxp home SP2.

This might like a strange suggestion but get motherboard monitor and monitor your voltages.

I havent done that, but I will when I get off work. I know i'm running a 550W PSU but its a generic one.

The only time it ever happens is exiting Galaxies or that's when it happens most? I'd also run memtest but if you have a 6800GT and a generic power supply I'm even more suspicious of the psu. Only the other hand it would be rather strange for a hardware problem to cause only one program to crash for a year. You have been running the error checking tool with fix erros and recover bad sectors both checked right?

Its running on a brand new Western Digital 80gig HDD. I ghosted over my old 40gig back when I put in a new CPU. Yeah, I run error checking every friday evening along with all my other diagnostic programs. I havent run memtest86 in a long time though, so I need to do that. It only happens when I exit galaxies and rarely any other time.
