Just a thought/question I had along with some other info.
What antivirus are you guys running? Im running kaspersky but ever since i turned
it off i haven't crashed. but sadly i updated video drivers at the same time. to
the det 4533 i do believe. Anyone with nvidia cards go to www.guru3d.com and get
the latest or fool around with other versions. Also here's a link
