There is no Nvidia-Driver 344.80 i guess he just wanted to write something.. nvm.
About this Workaround, i actually tested it and it doesnt work, its pretty much the same as if u put it on ultra.
Sometimes u can play a day in a row without crashes and sometimes u get an crash after some minutes.
U can say its a Workaround if it solve ur problem and u can only say that, if u atleast tested it more than just 1 or 2 days (with more than 3-4 hours in a row).
As i and many many others said, those crashes are random based (random time).
But thanks for trying to help.

There is a driver version 344.80 but it's a beta driver. You can find it here: http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3607
Furthermore I played for about 20 hours since I made the changes without any kind of error or crash (the same applies to the game of my friend). Before it crashed nearly every half an hour. So, yes, I consider this a working fix/workaround, at least for my PC/game.- 11 years ago
A beta driver, I see. Well I don't use them. Just a personal rule. ^^ And I believe that when one has possibly gpu related problems, a beta driver is simply not a good basis to conduct further analysis towards a solution of the problem. He should try with the latest official driver imho.

You should be careful downloading from unknown websites. the address you posted is http://nvidia.custhelp.com
That is NOT the Nvidia website. That is the Custhelp.com website. they just put nvidia instead of WWW. They can put anything they want to the left of the domain.com. So if I have the website example.com, I can make a webpage called nvidia.example.com or even bankofamerica.com.fooledyou.example.com. The extra periods are used to trick a person into believing they are at another website, but only the last 2 periods on the right matter.
Internet 101: A web address has 3 areas divided by a periods. A common example is www.google.com. You always look at these from right to left. So .com is the first thing to be proccessed. Next is .GOOGLE. This is the actual address. EVERYTHING to the left of that is internal and can be named anything by the website creator. So if I have the website example.com, I can make a webpage called www.example.com or try to trick you by using extra periods that don't really matter like bankofamerica.com.fooledyou.example.com.

[...]At the bottom of the website: "Copyright © 2014 NVIDIA Corporation"
And under legal information: http://www.nvidia.com/object/legal_info.html
"The materials on this web site (the "Site") are provided by NVIDIA Corporation ("NVIDIA") as a service to its customers and may be used for informational purposes only."
So...I really do believe it's an official Nvidia website. If not, this is one of the best scams on the web and you should really report it to Nvidia.

This is getting confusing, I started up DA:I today and ran it on nVidia optimal performance with windowed fullscreen, 5 minutes later in-game it crashes to a black screen instead of a white screen. I'm going to further troubleshoot these variations...
