New Graphic drivers bug?

I recently acquired a new A.O.C 2341 and installed the "drivers" for it (to use a term) and since doing that, along with installing WDDM 1.1 - 1.3 I have started having STO randomly "freezing" for upto 3 minutes, where as this is bad, it's made it effectively that I am unable to play STF.s

I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem with A.O.C monitors or the WDDM 1.1/1.3 for nVidia cards before, as that the WDDM 1.1/1.3 fixed a graphics error with another couple of games I had.

    Rollback your graphics driver immediately and install the latest from nVidia instead, or whichever is your video card manufacturer.

    Never install video drivers from Windows Update.

    1) A.O.C is not graphics card, it's the people who make my monitor.
    2) the WDDM 1.1 - 1.3 does not show up as a removable update.

    And after this, I did go to nVidia and grab the latest graphics drivers, no luck on fixing it, before posting topic, was asking if anyone else had this.

    A monitor would not cause the game to freeze.

    Either use a good driver cleaner and install the latest drivers from the mfgr, and/or you have a hardware issue while under load (cpu, gpu, psu, ram).

    When was the last time you canned air'd and vacuumed your computer?
