I think you mean a GTS 460 instead of 640? or did you mean a 8800 GTS with 640 MB? This does make a difference you see...

Any solution for this?
I've downloaded Nvidia's latest drivers that specifically mentioned Civilization V, but running in DX10/11 still causes the game to freeze about every 10-15 turns. I really want to play in DX11, besides the crashing the game runs better in this mode and is obviously more aesthetically pleasing.

I have a 8800 GTS 512 with a G92. I run Vista Ultimate 64 bit on a Q9300 with 8 gigs of ram. I always run the game in dx10/11 mode.
I think the game has crashed on me maybe once but no more than two times. I've been playing single player and multiplayer and I think the crash or two I had was in multiplayer. I've played several multi-hundred turn games. I have seen an occasional messed up graphic with horizontal lines through it and the speed at which the graphics are drawn seems slow for this hardware.
Anyway, my point is that I have similar hardware and I've really not had crashing problems much at all. I know this is not very useful to those who are having problems.
If it will help, I will go and try to dig up my video driver version. I've not upgraded them in many months, definitely not since I've installed Civ5.

the game freeze is not related to the 8800... it may be NVidia, though...
