mwarren Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 (edited) When I attempt to play Tiger Woods on my Sony VGN-AR370 running a Nvidia Geforce Go 7600GT the screen goes black, I hit CTRL-ALT-Delete and stop game I get an error that states nvidia driver stopped responding but has recovered. After contacting Nvidia and listening to them blame Sony and Vista I contact Sony, they state its not thier problem they have no warranties on 3rd party software and I need to contact EA Games,so I email EA games and they tell me to contact Nvidia. I have installed the latest drive from sonys website and all the drivers from Nvidia's website, I have also spend a lot of hours on Google to look for a fix but nothing has worked.

It seems VISTA is the real villain in the history. I own a Toshiba P105 S9337 and was having a bunch of problems like frame rate drops every 2-3 seconds and black screen crashes. Every owner of this model was totally pissed off with Toshiba for selling this machine as a gaming notebook. As usual no one seems to be taking responsibility. Nvidia blames the notebooks and say that the notebook drivers are machine specific. It turns out that they do have drivers for XP and just don't seem to care about making a proper driver for vista. Well, I hope for your sake that the game itself is the problem. Sry for the rant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been trying to hunt those down forever so I can be rid of Vista. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
