This mornings patch: Experiencing horrible graphic freezing, NVidia Problem?

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
I have run this game since closed beta. I have a Geforce 8600GT. I've never had any problems with Graphics slowdown or freezing.

After this mornings patch nearly every fight I have My screen freezes for about 5-6 seconds.

I have the newest drivers for my Video Card and I am running and lower than "High Quality" Graphics settings.

From Patch Notes:
http://www.startrekonline.com/node/1184
"We removed the old driver warning on the 191-195 line of NVidia drivers that some players were receiving since newer drivers are not yet available for some configurations."

Does this mean having NEWER Updated Drivers is actually a disadvantage?

    Nothing in the update last night changed regarding video settings or drivers. We simply removed a warning message some players were receiving.

    It may be that something was messed up during your patch.

    Here's some things to try
    - Try restoring default video settings then tweaking from there

    if that doesn't seem to resolve the issue

    - Try a force verify in the launcher options to see if there might be some bad mojo in your patch files

    If that still fails - you'll have to sumbit a bug ticket with your DXDiag for the core team to look at.

    Thank you very, very, much.

    I reset to Defaults. Then Reset my settings and everything is back to normal.

    THANK YOU! :D
