    My OS is Win7 sp1 - 32Bit. Video Card GeForce GT220 1Gb - 128Bit, and my problem is how to fix this,

    "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered
    Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Driver, Version 197.13 stopped responding and has successfully recovered."


    I want to show you the image of it, but it seems that i need to few times so that i can post or add kinds of links,images or videos.

    Did you completely remove the old driver before installing the new one? nvidia is really bad about that, you can't overwrite it.

    I get that error around every six months , tried bunch of ways to fix it but in the end what worked for me was to take off both my video card and rams off the case , and clean all the dust off it , i just clean everyting inside the case and somehow it gets fixed and doesnt bother for another six months , kinda weird doing that gets it sorted but whatever works...

    I also tried many versions of drivers like 20 different versions but they didnt fix it , hell some got it even worse

    That is a bit older card now, but have you tried checking Nvidia.com to make sure you have the most current driver version for the card?

    Also, have you noticed a pattern of when the error pops up? IE. rendering video, playing games, etc...

    When watching in youtube,vlc games only the secondlife, or even when it's already start up even i still not touching anything on the desktop area, it show the "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered
    Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Driver, Version 197.13 stopped responding and has successfully recovered."


    i want to show the image to you, but not autorized, still need to post few times.

    Are you overclocking your video card at all? (core clock, memory clock).

    Kernel Driver, Version 197.13= this version of the driver is like 2 years old I believe.

    You need to install the latest one.

    Here, download and install this one: http://us.download.nvidia.com/Window...glish-whql.exe


    Latest version: Version 306.97 - WHQL Release Date Wed Oct 10, 2012

    My 470 would do that every so often, its kind of something I just ignored. The driver would crash then recover. It usually happened when I would play Minecraft, then wouldn't happen again that day. I tried going to old drivers after the most recent ones did the same thing and no luck.

    When it pop-up the windows kernel, it freeze and black screen for 1 or 3 sec. after that then it seems that nothing happen, but if i'm watching video, the video is gone only a green screen you will notice on the screen of it, in games the secondlife, it will not respond.

    What kind of screen u guys use? i know 2 solutions that can help:
    1. New screen (somtimes older hardware will not be really compatible with w7 for some reason)
    2. The right driver for ur screen (I had this prob myself)

    had that problem on my old computer, HD's were going down. another most common issues are overheating and wrong drivers.
    OT: i hate it how industry and commercial IT-management use of laptops will always use manufacturers own display drivers at TOP OF the windows own ones...
