nvidia driver

[hwsinn]

Hi guys im have an gigabyte GTX 760. I have installed nvdia drivers 320.18 (from CD), 320.49, and recently it updated to 327.xx

In windows, i experience the driver kernel keep crashing. "NVidia display driver stopped responding and has recovered" It happened quite often at times. Sometimes when i do not oc at all it also happened. (cant be a faulty card ba)

Then when i was in BIOS i saw an option to choose PCI gen 1,2,3, Auto. It was always at Auto. I set to gen 2 and so far it has not appeared yet.

So does it mean i have a gen 3 card but i cant run gen 3 (or at least auto)? In auto i think it will scale up and down to save power when idle(as i seen in GPU-z)

Have you tried reseating the card again? That worked for my GTX580...

Try 314.22 WHQL with its inf modded to support 760. Geforce drivers are experiencing lots of similar issues to those of yours for the past half year or so on specific cards.

I actually did take out and put in many times le as it happened since 1-2mths ago.

Ya, many people experienced it but their reasons are very random like hardware fault which i highly doubt. How do you exactly do that?

Btw does leaving it in PCIe 2.0 affect performance (ie bottleneck)?
