    GeForce 8800GTS (G92) Nvidia Drivers problem?

    I recently got a GeForce 8800GTS 512Mb and have been getting a wide variety of BSOD 1033 and BCCode:24,50,d,d1,10etc. I think it has thrown every code at me possible. Any one know what could be the problem? All these problems started after I installed the Graphics card and before that everything was smooth as eggs.

    My system is a
    Vista x64 sp1 OS
    Gigabyte 965P-S3 rev1 Motherboard
    4x1 G.skill pc800 ram
    GeForce 8800 GTS 512Mb
    450 watt Antec Power Supply
    500 Gb Seagate HDD
    Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Gamer



    Could it be that I have an under powered system?
    I'll add my mini dumps for more info.
    Please help I can't figure anything out. I've tried to reformat, get latest drivers, rolled back to older drivers, update bios, and unplugging things from my Usb.

    Have you tried removing the new video card and putting the old one
    back in?

    No sold the old video card before I could do that,

    BUT

    I'm not sure if this fixed it, but I'm an idiot if that was the problem. My processor is a E6420 stock 2.1333Ghz @1.25V OC'ed to 3.2Ghz @1.35V. I lowered it to stock settings and its working fine for now, not crashing, but this has only been 12 hours... I wonder if undervolting my processor could have caused all the blues screens about drivers and what not. Maybe I will prime 95 it at the OC'ed setting. I'll post if that works if it blue screens at the OC'ed settings! I guess that what happens when Newbies overclock and don't stress test.

    Hi Vizzer,

    I personally don't recommend that you overclock a PC, but recognise that
    there are people who do and it is their perogative and they do it at their
    own risk. You state that you had run your system with the other graphics card
    whilst overclocking the CPU and that you had no problems. It could be that
    you need to check a setting in your BIOS (check your motherboard manual).
    Look for a setting that allows you to lock the PCIE bus frequency.
    Alternatively, this might be controlled by a jumper on your motherboard.
    Again, check the manual. It is possible that your other graphics card was
    more tolerant of bus frequency changes than your current one is, and locking
    the bus to its standard frequency should help. If it does, and you wish to
    overclock your system again, do so in small steps and thoroughly test it
    before increasing the frequency further. Repeat until you start getting
    errors or other symptoms and then back the frequency down to the last stable
    setting. It is also possible that the 'fault' could have been caused by the
    graphics card not being seated correctly in its socket.
