    Issue playing BF3

    I'm at wits end with this problem and it only seems to happen playing BF3.

    First time I jump into a match everything will act a-okay. GPU is at 54C, frames are smooth, no artifacts (I can play through a full match whether it be 10 minutes long, or a fresh match that goes for 20mins), nothing, but if I quit BF3 and try to jump into another match as soon as it goes to put me in the game the screen goes black and I get a "Nvidia driver kernal has stopped responding, blah blah blah" error and I have to kill BF3.exe in my task manager. I can play Crysis 3, Witcher 2, Borderlands 2, et cetera, with absolutely no issues. I've tried rolling back my drivers, but another funny thing that started happening is whenever I go to reinstall the drivers I loose DVI connection and I have to restart my computer. MSI GTX 680 Lightning, by the way.

    Any ideas?

    Did this happen after you installed a new nvidia driver? Seems like alot of people are having these issues.

    Yeah, it's definitely when the trouble started. I'm going to roll back to 310.90 and see what happens.

    So far so good with 310.90.

    You could also try the 314.14 beta if that helps aswell.
