pedrohsi Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Hey all, I have the Canadian bilingual version of Toshiba Satellite X200 (BG008C). On Vista32, only version 101.38 worked without issues, all the other nVidia drivers crashed during DVD playback (no matter what player I used). On Vista64 i haven't been able to find the perfect driver - games all run fine, but during DVD playback with Media Player Classic or WMP, or watching only video stream in WMP causes the same crash (Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered). Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Marley Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Have you tried 177.92? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew55 Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 This question has come up a few times and the answer has always been: Change your drivers. Try the ones Michael suggested. They should work. Also what kind of gpu do you have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrohsi Posted August 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 i've tried a couple of drivers but not the newest one - will give it a go today or tomorrow i have 8700 GT 512MB RAM http://ftp.toshiba.ca/support/TechSupport/...m=PSPB9C-BG008C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew55 Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 And I assume that those drivers are from an older series which your relatively new card would have trouble with. Seeing that you mentioned the 101.xx series. Try them and see. They may just work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wook Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 haha.. join the club! everyone wants the 'perfect' driver, but unfortunately you will have to sacrafice one or the other. (movies or games) I'm getting real tired of trying all the new drivers that come along.. even 177.92 is giving me a headache.. staggered visuals just like every other 177 series driver... :) Back to 175.63. For me thats the closest to perfect. games run very quick... only driver faster is 177.92. But.. movies are good too. (using MPclassic and VMR 9.0 renderless output) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrohsi Posted August 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 interestingly enough, 177.81 seems to be the best so far - no issues with games at all, and only rare driver lockups with DVDs - i'm not sure i want to try 177.92 as they reported issues with it and some games - we'll see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
