Video Card Fiasco, SLI error?
Tina G:
LOL! I had that dumb SLI message too. The registry hack killed it for me. Thanks Theo! ;D

It's not entirely Sims2 related, but it does involve my game. I have a NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT.
My game has been rendered unplayable by consistent Blue Screen of Video Driver Death. Every time I start up Sims2, it'll load up a neighborhood, let me play one of the houses, then BOOM! Freeze, BSOVDD. It used to let me play for longer (20 minutes or so) before dying, but last night, I barely got three minutes into playing before the freeze. It always gives the error of nv4_disp.dll (which dxdiag lists as my main driver).
It started out of the blue- I'd been using these same drivers since I installed the new video card a couple of months ago, and they'd been fine, no blue screens, no errors. When it started, I updated the drivers, but it didn't help.
Thing is, we've never had two video cards installed, and therefore, we can't figure out why this error started coming up when we hadn't changed anything. We don't have any options in the SLI menu to change anything.
Other games aren't crashing.
Would doing a complete reinstall help any? Could it be something in the game messing things up, or is something more serious wrong with my computer? I'm just at my wits end here.
Welcome to my world.....have the same card and same issue....haven't been able to play my game since.....it's probabley been going on about 2 months now.....I would really love a solution too! I miss playing my game. *Sigh* Tgdrysix
