Hi All -
I just bought a killer system from Dell a few week ago. It was the Dell Precision 380, and I am very pleased with it.
When I ordered the system I knew that I was going to upgrade my video card later on so I stuck w/the default v-card that was sent w/the system. That was the64MB PCIe x16 nVidia Quadro NVS 285, Dual Monitor VGA Capable system card.
Two days ago I bought the e-GeFoce 6800 GT PCI-E and installed it into my system and removed the old v-card naturally. I installed the latest nvidia drivers for the card and now I am experiencing the dreaded blue screen of deaths occasionaly when I watch some streaming videos or play some games ( note, I mainly bought this my DELL system for development work here and little games ).
I made sure I have the latest drivers for the motherboard and have tried all types of nvidia drivers out there ( haven't tried them all yet ) but I am still experiencing blue screen of deaths ( bsod ). Whenever the bsod happen it is always the same error message which is
A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
The problems seems to be caused by the following file: nv4_disp
If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
The device driver got stuck in an infinite loop. This usually inidicates problem with the device itself or with the device driver programming the hardware incorrectly.
Please check with your hardware device vendor for any driver updates.
Technical information:
*** STOP: 0x000000EA (0x88a00970, 0x87a00970, 0xb5500cbc, 0x00000001)

I am no hard-ware expert here but I do feel that the e-GeForce 6800 GT card is comptable w/my system but I could always be wrong. For starters, my system well exceeds the mininum and recommend requirements for the v-card in the first place.
Well, before I ramble on and on let me get to the point. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should be trying to resolve my problem here? I am open for all type of suggestions.
Thanks for any input provided and for your time,
