NVIDIA Windows Kernel 2xx.xx Driver Failed [FIXED]


ScoobSTi

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

 

I've got a big problem and I can't find a solution. Whenever I try to play any games, the screen flickers and eventually the game crashes to the desktop. I've Google'd this error and it turns out a lot of other people are getting the same error. Seems to be NVIDIA's horrible drivers, as people with cards totally different than mine are also getting the same error.

 

Anyone else got this error and fixed it?

 

Specs

Windows 7 32 bit

Intel i7 920 @ 2.67 GHz

NVIDIA 9800 GT 512MB

Asus P6T mobo

4GB ram (2x2)

Edit2: I've found a fix for the problem, and just wanted to update it here just in case anyone else ever gets it needs a fix.

 

1) Download MSi Afterburner. Can be found here

2) Install and run.

3) Set Fan Speed (last slider) to Max.

 

OR

 

3) Set Fan Speed to a number between 50 and 70. If you want to hear your fan whining everytime you game, set it to 70. :p

4) Click Apply.

 

This worked for me, so maybe it will work for other people! If you have the same problem and have a different fix, post it here and I'll update.
