Anyone have this nvidia problem?

[Emerson8]

Anyone getting a mem dump a few minutes into the game with 'nv4_disp.dll' (nvidia dll) as the error?

Any suggested solutions? I have the latest drivers...

Thanks.

I did have the problem on Day 1, but Day 2 updated the drivers and no problem.

Note: I have a crappy old Geforce2 Ultra card, and the current nVidia drivers (81.85) don't support that or some of the other older Geforce2 cards. You need to go back to 71.89 to get the latest driver for those cards.

Emerson,

I did respond to you in another thread, but here's what to do:

Download and run this http://www.drivercleaner.net/dc.htm utility to remove your current graphics card drivers.

Now download and re-install the latest set from Nvidias website.

Hopefully this will take care of your issue.

Right click 'My Computer'
Go to the 'Advanced' tab
Click 'settings' under 'Startup and Recovery'
Change 'Write Debugging information' to '(none)'
Reboot

I have seen that message a few times.

I had alot of problem with the game freezing at more or less random, I have tried several of the sugested fixes on these forums but none have worked, except reduse the number of crashes after i disabled the autosave.

Upgrade to the latest drivers failed somehow, so I decided to make a clean new installation of my PC. Now I have the latest of all my hardware drivers no other program accept Civilizatio IV and it still hang, though not as often as before.

I have the following...

Windows XP Professional, SP2
DirectX 9.0c
Nvidia 6800 128MB, 81.85
1024 MB RAM
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.2GHz

The game and graphics is beutifull and runs very smothe (with one accepting, the globe view is distorted sometimes) untill it freezes up and I have to reboot, or it reboot by itself or rarely it may crash to desktop with an error message of something going wrong with a file called 'nv4_disp.dll'.

I have given upp hope now, must wait for a patch. The game crashes from 5-30 minutes into the game right now.

Try an older driver set.

I tried a few different older driver before I installed it this afternoon. All had the same result, though this the latest seem more stable then the older ones.

So I don't think there is much hope installing an older one.
