    Which driver is useful for 2x MSI 250GTS 1G OC and Windows 7 64-Bit?

    After I upgrade my system to Windows 7 64-bit operating system, I loss to find a nvidia driver. That will not cause the BSOD or display a checkerboard pattern requiring me to reboot my system. I did not have this problem with Win XP. I tried both 196.21 and 196.34. Right now I'm using 190.37 and is quite stable. It's a driver issue or hardware? Here is my configuration. Please advice.
    This is my system configuration :
    Window 7 Professional (64-bit)

    ASUS M3N72-D (nvidia nForce 750a SLI) Motherboard – Phoenix AwardBIOS v6.00PG
    Lite-on Combo SOHC-536V Drive

    G.SKILL 4GB(2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Memory (CL 5-5-5-15)

    Realtek HD Audio
    Plextor DVDR PX-716A Drive

    Hi, I think you can do this, you have to slow down a bit with Afterburner or something related and try this. I know there was a factory OC'd 275 that did some things like crazy and well after the reduction of organized crime a bit. Note that 196.21 will not let you change the clock settings of video card, so you have to go to 196.34 or 195.62 Beta. Try with these settings and let me know it working or not. I hope this information will help you to solve your problem.

    I am currently using the 196.21 drivers and will see how it works. I had short term accomplishment with 191.07 MSI drivers, until I got the BSOD today. On the other moderator post, I set the automatic restart on system failure so you can give the stop error message exactly for publication. Still do not know if it's a driver or hardware problem (or both). For your information, this problem did not happen in XP.

    Hello I am facing similar kind of problem. I am running 2x 1GB OC MSI GTS250s with my windows system and 64-bit OS and driver 196.21. But I get some stop error message that I observer in my system. I have tried a number of drivers and still I am getting this stop error message. And now I want to solve this problem. And this problem never happened in my windows XP. I search about it on internet but not get that much success. Does anyone know why this happen? Is this problem related with my hardware or it’s a problem of my driver.

    Have you done a complete uninstalled the drivers? If you do not have the newest drivers of MSI then download it from http://global.msi.eu. Disable network card or disconnect from your PC. Switch off, disconnect power, and remove the two video cards and the seat back just ONE video card ensuring that all power connectors are firmly in place. Turn on the power again; start tapping F8 to enter Safe Mode. Now uninstall the video drivers NVIDIA PhysX included. Reboot into safe mode with network card is unplugged and the disabled. Run driver sweeper, taking care to select only the video, not nvidia chipset - this will remove the remnants and registry entries. Reboot into Windows and install one of the drivers. After installing the drivers and rebooted, re-enable or re-plug the network card.

    Hi, I replace my card, ram, which the good air flow installed the 197.13 drivers. And my problem seems to be fixed was about 3 days as bad. However I use nasty file remover and remove all my NVIDIA drivers as well. After installing the 197.13 drivers, I can play games all day and surf the net right now. This is fresh install windows 7 64 bits. If I still had problems I was not isolate the cards one at a time to see what shakes. Hopefully it’s fixed. By doing this I solve my problem. Please try these settings in your system. I hope it will help you to solve your problem.
