    Hi, I have an xps 15 (L502x) and well its crashing like no other ever since I reformatted. Mainly I've been getting a problem where nvwgf2um.dll crashes. This is the technical details of the crash:

    This never happened before I reformatted and I have not installed any new hardware. Does anyone know anyway to fix this issue?

    Also the time of the crashing is never consistent its very random sometimes I can play for a few hours and others I crash within 10 mins.

    This is what I have done:
    clean install of drivers 306.23
    disable orgin ingame.
    clean install of 306.02 (currently keeping right now)
