Hi,
I'm having problems with my Samsung RV518 notebook running Windows 7.
Problem: When the Nvidia's graphic card driver is installed/enabled flickering horizontal white lines occur on top of icons, scrollbars and taskbar as soon as I login to windows. Some white lines persist even on the shutting down/restarting screen (blue screen with some bird on a branch). If i stay logged in for a while, computer crashes with no BSD but dump file is saved.
Dump file link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/40610478/051313-18283-01.dmp
This dump file is a result of a such crash after a fresh Windows and factory CD drivers install, a combination that worked so far but with occasional "freezing" (everything just freezes and I have to power down the notebook via power button). I checked the event log codes for those freezes and I found somewhere that it was about the battery misreading.
Additional info:
1. I've downloaded and installed latest Nvidia drivers -> crash.
2. Tried with lower resolution-> crash.
3. Safe mode -> *works.
4. Disabled the display adapter trough device manager -> *works.
5. Didn't install drivers but let the Windows install theirs -> *works.
*works = I think it's not using Nvidia card for rendering but onboard graphics or software rendering?
These are the notebook's specifications:
Full model name: Samsung Notebook NP-RV518-S02HR
Operating System: Windows ® 7 Ultimate (32-bit)
Processor: Intel ® Pentium ™ Processor B940 (2.00 GHz, 2 MB L3 Cache)
Screen: LCD HD LED screen 15.6 inch (1366 x 768)
Graphics Processor: NVIDIA ® GeForce ® GT 520 M graphics
Memory Graphics: 512 MB DDR3
System Memory: 3 GB DDR3 system memory from 1,333 MHz (1GB x 1 + 2 GB x 1)
Memory slot: 2 DIMM slots
Storage: HDD 320 GB S-ATA Ⅱ Hard Drive (5,400 r / min)
The main chipset: Intel HM65
I would be very grateful if someone had an issue like this and knows something about it. I suspect that my gaphic card is gone
Thanks,
Goran
