Black Screen Then Computer Freezes

Do you ever get an error that says, "graphics driver 'blah' stopped responding, but has fully recovered" with this? ... If so, I get the same thing, and apparently it's a common Vista issue.
I get that error. How do you get it to stop?

I've never been able to. :/ .. I tried googling for help, it mostly said, 'update your drivers' but my drivers are fully updated, and I still get the issues. Some other person suggested getting a new graphics card, but I haven't tried that. Usually I don't bluescreen unless I've been running the game for a long time.. like.. over 3 hours... so.. all I can really recommend, is living with the error, and saving frequently if your computer is prone to bluescreening behavior.

I've googled too and have seen the "update your drivers" repsonse, so I did and I still get the error. I thought (was hoping) you might have some info beyond that. It seems like I get the error early on while playing, sometimes 10-15 minutes in. Then there's no rhyme or reason to it; sometimes I won't get it again at all, even after playing 4-5 hours and sometimes I'll get it 3-4 more times playing within that same time frame. Makes no sense to me.

I don't know if it helps but I can post my DxDiag report.

Use the FPS limiter that is available in the awesomeware section - see if that improves things for you. It is a graphics card issue, and the FPS limiter prevents your graphics card from going overboard on TS3 while still keeping your graphics as good as they can be for your card.
