How To fix "Display Driver Stopped Responding "

To quickly resolve the "Display Driver nvlddmkm Stopped Responding and Has Successfully Recovered." for a non-SLI system, follow the steps below. It will probably work for a system with 2 vidcards but I'm not fortunate enough to have a 2nd 8800.

Unfortunately, this fix is temporary...the problem can come back and you will have to do it again.

I found a better possible solution. Please thumb-up if it worked for you.

In the control panel, go to "Power Options", "Change plan settings", "Change advanced...", and look for "PCI Express" - "Link State Power Management".

Make sure that it's set to "Off". This will cause Windows 7 to avoid trying to save power by providing less voltage to the GPU, which may be the reason for the crash.

@club4ghz Turning off Link State Power Manager isn't turning off your gpu dumbass.
