Computers Video Card issue!

Q: Things have been just fine for months..using XP, Vvidia GeForce 8600 GT..suddenly games are crashing, blue screen,,,computer reboots itself and I have this Error 0XC000000d, location 0x0045af13. Cannot made it happy again. have tried

-rebooting
-restoring to earlier date-unable to restore "version mismatch"
-upgrade was in the spring and tried to roll back to earlier one..same error 0X0 etc
-unable to upgrade to beta coming out as it is not compatible with XP
-I haven't got a lot of hair left, I'm not doing hair tearing...but this is pretty frustrating. I'm afraid my card is suddenly toast and Ican't seem to fix it.

any suggestions?
 
A: I had the exact same card and the blue screens started after a windows update. I read in nvidia forums that many people were having similar problems. I solved my problem by completely uninstalling the drivers, then reinstalling from the original cd that came with the card & hiding the windows update after that.

User Error Replace User

 
User-Error-Replace-User

In Computer Support “User Error” is an error made by the human user of a computer system, formal human error codes/terms are used in the context of human reliability. User Error and related phrases are given below:
  1. PEBKAC = "Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair"
  2. PICNIC  = "Problem In Chair Not In Computer"
  3. PIBCAK = "Problem Is Between Chair And Keyboard"
  4. ID-10-T Error = "Idiot Error"
  5. Layer 8 Issue
  6. Wetware Bugs

These slang terms are used by technical circles to mean that a problem is caused entirely by the fault of the user.

The Navy pronounces ID10T as "Eye Dee Ten Tango".
The Army pronounces ID10T as “One Delta Ten Tango”.

The networking administrators refers user errors as a "Layer 8 Issue".
The computing terminology refers user errors as "Wetware Bugs".

Let us hope that you never see these terms on your file when a serviceman is fixing your computer. J
