grr. installed 285.62 and now it's conflicting with my Titanium HD. Audio now randomly drops to near inaudible levels. nVidia really needs to cut the sh!t and allow us to PERMENANTLY disable the damn bitstream. Is there a petition we can sign or something; I'm really getting tired of this

Hi guys im in the same situation and still having the same black screen.I have tried the method soo many times but witn no result.
My system:
Motherboard:Fatal1ty P67 Performance
CPU:intel I5 - 2500K
RAM : Kingston 2x2gb
Graphics Card:EVGA GeForce GTX 460 SE 
PSU:Seasonic SS-850KM Gold
 
 
 

thanks for advice dbuddle ,tried this and for now it's working.But i dont know for how long.I hope i wont have any problems in the future
 
Edit:today i when i playing WOW my display got freezing again , after restart - black screen and same problem .
 
Sorry for bad english

Beyond frustration.  Had this card for less than two weeks, and what started on day 3 has now become everyday.  When I boot from a complete shutdown, I get black screens.  I hook up my 2nd monitor to the onboard video, check device manager and discover the system doesn't see my card.  I shut down, reseat, and it's fixed...until I shutdown again.  I can reboot and it will still work though.  Last night I followed all the steps in the first post and everything went well with that...until I completely shutdown and started it up again to test it.  Same thing.  Any ideas???

I didn't seem to have a problem until recently, when I uninstalled my old drivers and installed the latest certified ones. My comp would freeze, and I'd get the "display driver has stopped responding" error. This has fixed the problem.
 
Thanks so much

hello
i got that irq problem with my z68xp ud4
both my gtx 460, one evga ssc+ and one gigabyte oc, cant work in single but the sli dont have any kind on problem

ps. sorry for my english

I have tried the things in the looong thread but still have an issue.

Display driver stopped responding and has recovered
display driver nvidia windows kernel mode driver, version 306.02 stopped responding and has successfully recovered

Now the one thing i have done different is that I am using my computer with the specs below through HDMI out of card to my 55 in led tv/monitor. It is quite frustrating to have the momentary lock and reinit of the drivers. Is there anything that will actually help or even fix this issue besides disabling the hd audio, I have attempted swapping the cards with and without sli enabled. Phys-x assigned to secondary card and assigned to cpu or even letting nvidia select best  place.

Hi,
I guess I have the same problem with my evga GTX 460 768mb:
Sometimes my screen stays black after the Windows 7 64bit startup logo. I can hear the login-jngle, and when i press the powerbutton i can hear the goodbye-tunes. So the OS must be operational in the backround. Other than that i get random freezes and lock-ups when trying to come out of standby.
 
I tried deactivating the hd-audio-drivers as mentioned in the 1st post and got rid of the 4x nvidia-sound devices. Unfortunately the problem prevails.
 
I tried reinstalling Windows like 20 times already, using a clean install for various nvidia-drivers including the latest 306.97 and the oldest 275.33. My installation procedure was 1) Win 2) latest AsRock-Drivers 3) nvidia drivers 4) disable troublesome HD-device and do some testing
 
I still get black screens and I'm pretty clueless right now. I'm also not sure about the steps mentioned in the sticky which come right after deactivating the HD-drivers, something about cleaning the registry. Honestly I can't comprehend what this is all about.
 
Please help me with this problem.
 
Greets!
 
PS: My system - xeon 1230v2 - AsRock H77 Pro4/MVP - 2x 4gb Corsair Vengeance LP - evga GTX460 768mb - BeQuiet E9 480W - Samsung 830 SSD (all parts are only days old, the Motherboard and Ram has already been replaced by RMA due to this problem)

@ gianky
This forum is dead! evga has abandoned this place. Don`t rely on help here.
 
Also this guide didn't help me with my problem. It was a false track.
Overall I'm disappointed with evga about the way they handle this problem.
 
Some advice for you:
 
1) have you changed your system lately with new hardware? The way you describe your problem you didn't.
2) try different drivers, preferably certificated ones.
3) don`t waste more time and check your card in another system.
4) my solution: the problems only occured with the pcie 3.0-slot.
Switching to the pcie 2.0-slot solved all issues.

 
 
Actually it didn't work for me. I'll try changing some BIOS settings and see if that does the trick.

That didn't work either. Final solution:

SAPPHIRE 100355-1GOCL Radeon HD 7850

HA! looks like i fixed this same issue i been having with my EVGA GTX 460 2Win, installed EVGA Precision X 410 and it showed GPU1: 987mV GPU2: 1012mV in the Voltage tweaker so i set both GPU1,2: 1000mV and POOF! it works!, tested some games FC3, BF3, GTAIV, Skyrim.. i did however Disable the HD Audio Controllers 1 and 2 just incase, it all ran like a charm no crashing badass gfx card!

I had the black screen problem months ago installing the 310.70 driver. Since then, I completely gave up updating my Nvidia drivers because that **** scared the hell out of me.
 
It's really frustrating, but imo it was the safer option because I don't have extensive knowledge to deal with these technical problems.
 
You guys can laugh at me now, but I'm using the 306.97 driver for my GTX's 560 Ti on Sli and the system is running fine since then. 

Here is the procedure I used to permanently prevent Windows 7 from installing NVIDIA HD Audio drivers (will probably work for Windows 8 also).
 
Start > Control Panel > System > Device Manager
Locate NVIDIA HD Audio devices, right-click and select Properties.
Select the Details tab and from the drop-down box select Hardware IDs
(should look the same or similar to this: HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10DE&DEV_0016&SUBSYS_10DE0101)
If there are two hardware id's, you only need the shorter one. Right-click the ID and select Copy.
 
Start > type in the Run box: gpedit.msc
Navigate to: Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Device Installation > Device Installation Restrictions.
Double-click or right-click and select Edit the following entry: Prevent installation of devices that match any of these device IDs.
 
Select the radio button Enabled.
Tick the checkbox on the bottom-left for "Also apply to matching devices that are already installed".
Click the "Show" button on bottom-left and double click your mouse in the top blank line until you see a flashing text entry cursor. Right-click and paste the hardware ID you copied earlier.
Click OK twice to exit the group policy setting, then close the group policy editor.
 
Start > Control Panel > System > Device Manager
If you had drivers installed for the NVIDIA HD Audio, you will see that Windows will uninstall them within a minute or so, if it has not already done so. The HD Audio will be moved to "Other devices" and be renamed to "Audio device on high definition audio bus". You may now right-click each instance of this device and select "disable".
 
Note that if you upgrade your video card you will need to repeat the process for the new hardware IDs.
 
Enjoy!
