    Hello,

    For the last week I have been receiving the following error only when playing Battlefield 3: http://d.pr/i/cdg8

    I have tried reinstalling Battlefield 3, reinstalling DirectX, downgrading to an earlier graphics driver and also reinstalling Windows 7. All without any luck.

    I have no idea how to solve this issue. Do you guys have any suggestions?

    Thank in advance.

    Anything overclocked?

    Only time I've seen that error is when my GPU was overclocked too far.

    Try reducing clock speeds and see if that helps, if it does then you may want to RMA your card.

    do u have power managment set to performance or adaptive?

    I cant leave mine on adaptive because I get the same error in some games, that as soon as gpu usage dropped it was lowering the voltage and gpu speed while the game was going

    I had that 2-3 times with some newer driver (I think 310.xx) and only if I Oc'ed the gpu to far. Driver reinstall fixed it.


    Also while you're at it disable ingame Origin chat to see if it helps.

    I receive the same error about once a gaming session. A clean driver install seems to fix it for a couple of days then it starts happening all over again. I'm glad to see it's not just me.

    I have tried installing the 314.14 beta driver from nVidia and the first day it went well. Now I am getting the error again.

    I don't know what to do next.
