Blue screen

Ok I bought a geforce 9500 GT to replace my 8500 GT
The 9500 has a fan the 8500 was passive
Seems the 9500 likes to throw me into blue screen
It runs a few hrs then suddenly bsod (I can't even read it) and an immediate reboot
It's done that with 2 diff mobos.. and even after swicthing 500 PSU to 650
Last time I redid my windows tho I seem to have an Unknown device in my device manager..
Now I put that on disable and so far no blue screen..
It's prolly some nvidia issue... (8500 was club3d 9500 is Asus)

Re: Blue screen

The quick BSod and reboot is probably a driver issue. I just went thru somthing like this with my WEBcam. I had updated the software becasue I followed the the popup from Logitech that there was a new updated software.

Questions for you did you uninstall the old video card drivers and then install the new card drivers. If not that maybe your problems.

Also if you used the video card rivers that came with you new card the drivers are probably out of date. You may want to try new drivers from Asus's web site for this card.

Disabling an unknown device and now running tells me that a feature has not been installed. In particular if you are running with the default MS drivers.

Re: Blue screen

Im just starting to wonder if it's got to do with asus video security thing..
And yea Ive tried the newest drivers from Asus
But I also know certain drivers of nvidia do cause bsod's

And I always uninstall old then reinstall new.. I learnt that from experience either way (if you leave the old nvidia drivers on and install new ones the screen/card acts as if you have no drivers installed so yea)

Re: Blue screen

Well, just to clear one thing up, lack of power isn't the culprit here, the 9500GT will draw less than 50W even at 3D load.

Re: Blue screen

The "unknown" device is a CIR.. infrared receiver on motherboard..
I fail to see the use of that thing.. my old board had one too
BTw... 50 Watt?
So not anywhere close to 75... because Im on a DP45SG/Skyburg and I stuck the 4-pin/molex in and they said you only need it for cards over 75 or something...
Im leaving it in anyway, better be safe
