Hey all, I keep getting a "has stopped working error" every time I attempt to boot up any game.

I've checked event veiwer, and it says the issue is nvd3dum.dll

This issue has only been of late, I have had some hardware changes, new motherboard went n, and nothing but trouble so far, I did a windows fresh install on formatted drives.

My games worked yesterday, and Saturday, but today they just dislike me, all games crash with the stopped working error.

I beleive nvd3dum.dll to be something to do with nvidia drivers, ill do a reinstall and see what happens

My system specs are
Msi 990xa gd55 mobo
Amd phenom ii x4 945 3.0ghz 95w cpu
Msi gtx 550 ti cyclone ii oc gpu
4gb ram
Windows 7 64bit "supposedly not genuine as it won't let me activate it" *i know it's genuine as it ran n my old mobo just fine*
2 150gb hdds 1 1tb external drive
500w novatech powerstation psu

Driver re-install didnt work.
