and then blue screen

Gone back to 1.4, and it's rock solid stable again

All my other games that seriously stress the graphics card are stable (eg - Crysis)
Now I have encountered the same problem. I today Hit my first ship in SH4 1.5 with a torpedoe and the explosion resulted in the nvlddmkm error and hard CTD and Hard Re-boot.

I have two SH4 installs, one SH4 1.5 and one SH4 1.4....With the latter I have no problem....works fine as it always had before. Something in SH4 1.5 is definitely causing this problem.

Howwever, interestingly enough, today I installed and SetUp and then attempted to run a new Game, "Pacific Storm:Allies", which is known graphics and action intense, and it crashed immediately upon my clicking to Start first training mission/game', giving the same nvlddmkm error. I find that coincidentally suspect.

Seems to me SH4 1.5 may have done something, or soemthing in SH4 1.5 AND Pacific Storm reacts oddly with my NVidia card/driver.
