Try running on an older driver. The driver is not the issue with playing games, the video card is older and was never made for games.


It's not just for gaming I am using this now for every day use.

I can't use the computer because every 5 minitues it's happened.
What older driver should I insrall? what version?




Don't know what will work exactly, try one a few revisions back. You'll need to uninstall the one you have now, and see which one works for you.

If you can rollback the drivers, I would recommend using Guru3D - Driver Sweeper. This tool will clean up all the old drivers, then you can do a fresh install of the latest drivers.

Well, according to Nvidia, your card does support Physx (GeForce GT 220).

Download the drivers again, and check the little box that allows for a clean install. Its in the Nvidia installer, i think where you select express or custom.

From what I have seen, I don't think that you are going to be able to play BF3 even at low resolutions and settings. This may be the cause after the update as to why you are having graphics issues.


I just tried this and I still have the same problem.
Black screens and then message that the driver didn't respond and made restart.
What should I do?

I also checked the driver manager and there is no option to go back to the previous version.

When you do a clean install with the box checked, it will delete previous driver installations. You don't have to install in safe mode either.

Just click install and check this box?
thats all?
I don't need to delete the currect driver or something?

And install it on regular or in safe mode?

To roll back your driver, Go to device manager, select display adapters, click on the driver tab, then click on the Roll Back Driver button.


Ok I did.

But I still need to update my driver.
