A few games crash my graphics card...
Ok, I wanted to play a few games online

One of em being holic and the other being gunbound

I was playing for a little while and for no reason my graphics card crashes and I have to restart my com, it even blue screens my computer sometimes

the error code for holic I got was:

At first I thought it was just holic, but gunbound did it too, and Im starting to worry my card is failing

I have a NVidia GForce 8800 GTX 756MB and I am running Windows vista.

It cant be a virus since I re formatted my computer yesterday, cause I thought maybe a re format would fix this problem

Sounds like you need to get a new driver. The problem has been known to occur ( i had it for a while) but changed the driver and all was ok. It may require going for an OLDER driver, not necessarily a newer one, but try the newer first. They do work properly, promise <gg>

Well, I will try a older driver and see what happens, since the new one didnt work, it still done the same thing.
