<p>Bought a new laptop 2 weeks ago. Played eq2 flawlessly for a week, then my display drivers started crashing constantly.</p><p>Read the old thread, not running an nvidia card nor am I running at high temps, so you can rule that out already. I play on extreme performence, tried the water reflections on + complex shader -1 thing, etc etc. It only happens when I play EQ2, and on top of making my laptop display not function (have to use a monitor to see anything), it can crash from anywhere from once to up to 25 times consecutively, and I just sit here with my screens flashing over and over and crash again as soon as it tries to draw EQ2.</p><p>Dxdiag Info : <a href="http://pastebin.com/tteWL63G">http://pastebin.com/tteWL63G</a></p><p>Also it explicitly says something about the Driver Accelerator crashing, but I couldn't find that to turn it off, nor do I know if it would be a good idea to do so.</p>

<p>Also, I just noticed this morning. It only seems to crash when I'm typing something. Is it possible the typing cursor is somehow crashing my driver?</p><p>Edit: Or maybe not. Just most of the time.</p><p>Edit2: Disregard. Returning laptop, purchasing new one.</p>
