I keep haveing my Nvidia driver crash while i am in game. It will work fine for about 10-15 min then it crashes. I am useing the 5800 pro 256 pci E card. I have updated my driver, and downloaded eqplay nice. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.
 
I've found that Nvidia sometimes puts out some broke ass drivers. Have you tried any older ones? 63.x works well for WoW, for example.
 
EQplaynice the version that works with SoD seemed to find issue with my nvidia drivers.
 
ATI is a great video chipset when you are doing a lot of multimedia but as of late I am less impressed with thier "gaming" efforts on a straight 3d card status goes.

On my network at the house here I have a mix of ATI and Nvidia cards, the ATI's are all "BUILT BY" (brand name ATI not a 3rd party using the chipset) and my Nvidia's are typically "Powered BY" (someone else ie. MSI or ASUS using the Nvidia chips.)

The machines with NVidia cards are those that I game on. Those with ATI are those that I do day to day and a lot of Multimedia type work.
 
Nvidia allows access to some of their older drivers for a reason I guess. Some games I play are buggy on an alternate system I use with the most up to date drivers. Sacred is an example.

I would advise using a set of drivers prior to the most up to date version. You also might try running DXDIAG from the Run prompt to make sure you get no error messages assuming you are using Windows.

Haha Sacred is buggy on any system, regardless of drivers.
