anyone use Windows 7 and a GPU client? the Dell keeps crashing(goes to a black screen you have to hard reboot to get rid of) after being idle for ~30min, is there a known fix? i disabled all the powersaving stuff i could find, only one i kept was CPU throttling as it has nothing to do with the GPU, or is that it?

I know that vista and windows 7 have issues with Nvidia drivers when it goes to sleep. Try disabling the sleep setting.

well, it doesnt crash when it goes idle anymore

but it does crash when you try to download something/web browse, so im go to my tried-and-true 181.20 cuda drivers
