    Having problems with Nvidia drivers lately?

    If you've been having problems with the display drivers crashing then recovering (I know you have plum), take a look at this post:

    http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=207666

    and specifically this comment:

    I fixed it by using "Prefer Max performance; instead of 'Adaptive' in Nvidia Control Panel


    Now I found this setting yesterday and I haven't had the error since, however I was only getting it sometimes, not necessarily every day, but usually I would see it once a day. What I'm saying is, I don't know if this has fixed the problem, but so far so good so if you want to try it out, here is where to find the setting he's talking about.

    3D settings>Manage 3D settings>Global settings>Power Management Mode

    Set it as he says and see if it helps.

    I haven't had any crashing problems, but some weird artifacts(?) have been showing up. Random green or purple splotches show up for a split second. It's really distracting sometimes.

    I figured out what my problem was! This was my error, last night I was benchmarking my 570s and hit 1000 core clock 2000 shader clock and 2300 mem clock. Well after I was done benchmarking I down volted and set my card back to my 24/7 use except for the mem clock!After putting that back to the stock 2100 problem solved.

    I believe that pic of Picard is from the episode where Riker is accused of rape and murder.
