Hello all,
I used to run wow on a Nvidia Geforce GTS 250, it didn't have DX11 but it worked fine as I'm told Geforce is tailored towards gaming. However I also use Autodesk Alias for 3D modelling for freelance work and the like. I upgraded to Alias 2010 as it has the tools and bug updates that 2009 needed, however the problem is that the shader tools for 2010 require open GL 2.0 compatible drivers, something that the GTS 250 doesn't have (even when I downloaded open GL2.0 for it, Alias still wouldn't run the shaders).
So I have recently bought the new Nvidia Quadro 2000 which is tailored towards Modelling - I assumed that this would be perfectly fine for WoW but also allow me to get my work done for my clients. Its running smoothly but every once in a while (while playing WoW) my screen shuts off and stays off for around 20 seconds before reloading. At which point Windows states that the graphics driver had failed but has successfully recovered. My worry is that its causing damage to the card or the driver every time it fails and recovers so I was wondering if there were any other Alias users out there that have found a solution.
