    Thumbs down For NVIdia users - READ.

    All of u who have Nvidia graphics, DO NOT UPDATE to latest driver 196.75, cuz it malfunctions your vga cooler, and there is possibility to burn your card. It happened to me, when i installed, it gone to 115 degrees while in standby. Thx God i had riva installed, and prevented it to burn.
    If you already installed it roll to previous one.

    More info about this issue:

    Mine is also 9800gt. And that happened,115 degrees (celsius) while in standby. So if you installed 196.75 driver, better remove it. Im using WinXP sp3 x32, dunno about linux.

    Drivers don't update automatically. Unless you recently downloaded new drivers and installed them, you're safe.

    You can only have this problem if you have recently DOWNLOADED AND INSTALLED LATEST NVIDIA DRIVERS.

    If you didn't update your drivers, you can't have those problems.

    I have 9500GT and i recently re-install windows 7 and install driver-"196.21_desktop_win7_winvista_32bit_english_wh ql" from nvidia website. Is this driver ok cuz when i play dota my pc crashes some times and says that i have some problem with the driver ? :\ I also don't have Nvidia Control Panel now. I had it before re-install windows 7 but now i don't have it , so how can i see my version just to be sure that is 196.21 ? Sry for my english.
