I just recently updated my drivers to version 190.38. While playing a coop game with a friend and being in the air for a while the video signal was lost to the monitor. The sound continued for about 30 seconds, stopped and then came back on for about 10 seconds then the computer rebooted. We tried this a second time and about the same time in the air it happened again.

To see if it was just IL2 1946 related I tried several other games.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare - played for an hour online with 32 players no problems
Call of Duty World at War - played for an hour online with 32 players no problems
AH 2 - online with 300 players on new version with updated graphics (this is the application requiring the latest drivers to play) no problems


Anyone else having issues with this new driver and the IL2 Sturmovik 1946 game using the unified mod installation?

O.k. Since you've not given any real information, I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you're using Vista.

Nope.

Windows XP Pro 32Bit
XFX NVIDIA Geforce 9600GT 512MB
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy2 ZS Platinum Pro
2GB Corsair Dual Channel Ram

Everything was fine using the 182 drivers. Aces High 2 which I play in addition to this game updated its version with new terrain textures and required the latest video card drivers to run all the new eye candy. The newest drivers were the 190.38 which I installed. Yes I used Driver Cleaner 3 Pro and followed the instructions to the letter. After the install I had issues playing the game as I described above. Since the problems started I have installed the latest creative drivers for my sound card, reinstalled Direct X and just changed to the 186 drivers to see if this changes anything. Keeping fingers crossed. I run riva tuner and my fan automatically changes speeds based on temperature range settings. Rig is in my basement where temperature tops out around 70 give or take on the hottest of days. The card temperature never exceeds mid 40's C and by then my fan is running at 100%.

So the only thing that changed just before the issue started was changing from the 182 drivers to the 190.38 drivers.
