I tried playing 224 today and only could get about 10 minutes into a game before it would just freeze up. I would have to kill the process via task manager. In task manager I saw the ns2 bug report thing was on also.

Steps taken so far:
Restarted my computer
Verified game cache

    Yup. Just happened to me 3 minutes ago in Tram. Graphics glitch out, there's a buzzing sound and I have to End Process from TM.

    It only started happening after I installed the latest NVIDIA drivers (GeForce GTX 550 Ti 306.97) on build 223, usually fairly late into a game (30+ minutes in).

    I seem to be running other games fine (SS: BFE and Sins of the Solar Empire) just fine for even longer periods of time so I'm thinking it's incompatibility in the Spark infrastructure with the new driver.

    Oh ya, this thread... I solved it. I was testing my 6950's max clocks for benching earlier in the day. Forgot to bring the clocks down for gaming.
