Display Driver nvlddmkm stopped responding -- FIX-- - Dwai

I have found and fixed the problem today.  This is what appears to happen.
during the installation of the most current drivers 100.65 Vista, an OLD file
nvlddmkm.sys is copied into windows/system32/drivers and not the current one
in the install.  As a result the new drivers are attempting to access a file
dated 11/2006 instead of 2/2007 ver 7.15.11.0065 which is in the newest WHQL
driver ver 100.65 vista 32.

Fix:  Go to windows/system32/drivers and rename nvlddmkm.sys to
nvlddmkm.sys.old.  Go to the nvidia directory and find the file nvlddmkm.sy_
and copy it to windows/system32.  Using the cmd window (DOS box) type
EXPAND.EXE nvlddmkm.sy_ nvlddmkm.sys.  When the expansion is complete, copy
the new nvlddmkm.sys to windows/system32/drivers and restart the computer.

Your computer should now work properly.

You will notice that any uninstall and reinstall of nvidia drivers will not
remove the old nvlddmkm.sys file and will not overwrite it with the newer
version.  You have to do it manually. I do not know why this happens but who
cares as long it is fixed.

Good luck...
