460 stuttering after reboot

Re-installed the drivers like normal but didn't re-enable SLI. Games worked fine without stuttering. Updated chipset driver using the exe from intel and stuttering started again even though I did not reboot. Could the chipset drivers be interfering with the graphics drivers and causing the stuttering?

Hi there,

I just started having this issue as well. I got an Asus and an EVGA GTX460, and have the same issue when running either one of them alone (non-SLI) on my system.
When I reinstall the drivers and reboot to complete the installation, there is no stutter. Although once I reboot after that, then the stuttering comes back for any game I start up...

I'm starting to run out of options and ideas - Have you ever found a solution to this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Actually I did find a solution, but it may just be my system. I reinstalled windows and did not install any drivers except the nvidia driver and the logitech driver(for my g35 headset). My SLI has worked without a stutter since. I think there was a driver conflict with one of the drivers, although I am not sure which one.

Hope this helps!

Hi again,

Thanks for responding to my question.

I was finally able to solve my agonizing issue, with the help from the diablo 3 forums as well as from you!

It turned out it was a driver issue indeed. Installing new drivers wouldn't work, and I had to manually uninstall each component of the nvidia drivers, as well as remove any leftovers using "Driver Sweeper". Then I was able to install new nvidia drivers and haven't had any stutters since!

Thanks again for your help! Hopefully, this will help others that might have the same problem..

Cheers!
