| Vista Home Premium 64Bit SP1 | BSOD when gaming I seem to be getting an usually large number of bsod's when gaming. It happens on a variety of games even some fairly new ones such as Rainbow 6 vegas. All my games have the latest patches on but it still happens. The windows error report says its due to my ati graphics driver but my card (HD2600XT) is only 2-3 months old and i have the latest drivers for it installed. Any suggestions? |

| Windows Vista Home Premium x64 SP1 | Re: BSOD when gaming If you have Catalyst 7.10, try rolling back to 7.9. If you have 7.9, install 7.10. I've got that card (2, in fact), and I haven't really had BSOD problems, so I'm not sure why that would cause you trouble. |
