Ok so I've had my M14x for a while, but only recently got a mouse so have only just started playing games.
Before I had my mouse I only had football manager, which freezes a lot.
When I go into pitch mode, it will occasionally crash, with an error 'Nvidia kernel driver has stopped responding but has recovered' or something. It also crashes randomly sometimes, saying 'Football manager has stopped responding'.
Since I've had my new mouse I've played 2 games; Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Dragon Age: origins. Both games have crashed randomly during gameplay, with an error 'xxx has stopped responding', with 'xxx' being the game name.
I've tried reinstalling the drivers but it hasn't done anything.
This is the error I get:

I have emailed dell, but I have to say, I trust you guys more, haha.
Thanks in advance.

-
can you check nvidia drivers just make sure they are up to date. think latest is 280.26
-
I think I have 280.21 but that's the latest on dell's site
-
on dells site the driver version is 260.21.
your best getting a modded inf file from laptop2go and install 280.26 and see if game crashes then
im playing deus ex at min and havent had any crashes yet.... -
Tried playing with DX9.
I too have frequent crashes with DX11 on DA2 -
DA2 works perfectly for me. I've tried other games, like Batman Arkham Asylum, Modern Warfare 2, Portal 2, Civilization V, Mafia 2, etc. All have worked fine. Using 270.33 driver with modded inf from Laptopvideo2go.
Game Crash issues (every game(3))
