What is the fix for this?
My specs are
Intel pentium dual core 2.70 ghz
Evga gtx 660 ti
6gb ram
Evga 500w psu
Win 7 64 bit

I know the processor is the problem but not 100% sure. Any ideas?

My gpu is 3 days old

roll back to the previous version of the driver. if it's working fine then there is some stability problems with the drivers. try this out and let us know how it goes?
How can you tell that processor is the problem?

If you've got multiple drivers installed i would use a driver removal utility like ( http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html ), then restart and install the correct driver

No not neccesary to reinstall windows. :) Boot into safe mode, and use this program to remove all Nvidia drivers: http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html Once done reboot and install the latest driver. Hope this helps ;)

some times as soon as your start your PC after removing all drivers in safe mode, Win7 or higer will automatically find a suitable driver. turn off that option and then install a stable version of driver. don;t install beta versions.

Can you boot to safe mode with command prompt, then do "chkdsk /F (drive letter)"... so if your HDD is C: type "chkdsk /F C:"

Also, where did you get the driver that you installed when this first started happening?

At the geforce website. I think this is a hardware problem..

If it happened immediately after installing a GPU driver I don't think it would be hardware related... if chkdsk comes back clean i'd suggest reinstalling windows
