How many of you have encountered the NVLDDMKM failure ? What action have you taken? did it help? how many times have you been kissed off by Nvidia tech support?I Have tried any fix on this side off the net.With no avail.From what I gathered it affectsmostly 8800 nVidia cards in vista 32.But is not confined to 8800 cards only. Your inputis appreciated.PGZmy system:mo: nVidia 680i SLI quad proc.4 gb mem2 8800 gts 640 mb SLI confvista ultimate

As I stated in an earlier post, this issue is actively being worked on by NVIDIA techs (see the NVIDIA SLI community forums for further info). Individuals getting this error were asked to upload their error reports to the forum so the techs could find a fix. NVIDIA techs were able to duplicate the error a week or so ago and I think a fix will be coming soon. Meanwhile, to stop the errors until this problem is fixed, you need to turn off Windows AERO and enable Vista Basic and, under Visual Effects, turn off shadowing (menus and cursor). This works for most people, including me, but I have read this doesn't work on all systems for some reason.Jim

thanks tried the suggested before no joyI gues I will have to wait for Nvidia....................PZ

In case you have not heard, the new 163.44 beta drivers have fixed this problem. If the drivers don't fix the issue for your system, then I suggest logging into the SLI forum at NVIDIA.com and uploading your error report for review by the NVIDIA techs. Instructions for doing this are shown in the thread entitled 'Ongoing SLI support'.Jim
