![]() If it had just thrown BSODs instead of this soft recovery, then after a couple of different drivers I would've replaced the hardware, because the technician in me knows that BSOD=bad hardware, at least as often as not. Event Viewer errors blame the Radeon drivers, in my case, and so I've gone through three different sets of them to try to fix the issue, before eventually spending the last six months just living with the hourly display driver recoveries and ~10 second system freezes that go with it. ![]() If that were the case I would love a more detailed explination. Maybe I am giving the OS developers too much credit. This hardware is simply failing and previously windows had no way of doing anything about it except for rebooting. That's why we are seeling this across different hardware types. This allows you to cancel the application and continue on. Instead of simply crashing with BSOD, though that sometimes happens, Windows is attempting to stop and restart the video drive on a hardware fault and minimize the application. ![]() What I am starting to suspect is that this error in general may be a product of the new way that Window 7 and perhaps vista is designed to handle video card crashes.
