Default Error when playing the game

"NVLDDMKM has stopped working and has been restored"

This has been plaguing me every time I play Guild Wars. The sad thing is, it only happens when I play Guild Wars...

I've been reading all over the web about people with the same issues and I guess that there can be multiple reasons for this error. I'm just curious as to why this is happening? I'll be playing fine for one moment and then randomly the game begins to shake and freezes up. About a minute later, it recovers.

I'm just frustrated with this. As I said before, Guild Wars is the only game that I have encountered this problem with. It isn't a very demanding game so I'm not seeing the problem.

T7500, 2.2 GHz
2GB DDR2, 667MHz
160GB, 7200RPM
15.4" WXGA, anti-glare
256MB NVIDIA 8600M GT

Those are my specs. Now I've been playing WoW, SWG, Age of Conan (very well suprisingly), Oblivion, Diablo 2, Jedi Outcast, Final Fantasy Online, Madden 08, and Neverwinter Nights 2 all within this past month. None of those games bring up the problem.

Any ideas guys?


EDIT: Before anyone says this, yes, I have updated my graphics card driver. It still does not work.

It's definitely an nvidia issue.

Rahja will be able to provide input for sure.

Your graphics card is defective. You need to replace the laptop. This was due to a material issue in the fabrication in mobile processors.


Your laptop company should provide a replacement motherboard at no charge. Sorry.

(Guild Wars is very very sensitive to errors unlike other games, so it will produce an error in GW before any other game in most cases)
