Game starts up, everything is working fine. That is, until I undock or jump between systems. Then, my screen goes black for about a good 5 to 10 seconds, and I get the message "Display Drivers have stopped responding and have rebooted." Not sure what I can do, all my drivers are up to date.

System Specs:
Laptop: HP Pavilion g7-1073nr
OS: Windows 7 64-bit
RAM: 4096MB
Display Driver: Intel(R) HD Graphics
Processor: Intel(R) Core(Tm) i3 CPU

I would love it if anyone is able to figure this out! ISK rewards are a possibility Smile

I get this as well, my drivers are also up to date. I am using an Nvidia card though even tried a different PSU and memory but same thing.

‘No, this isn't it at all. Make it more... psssshhhh’.

Workaround: Fly with your solar map open

Far from ideal I know why this prevents the drivers from crashing no idea ask CCP. Roll

This is not really the fault of eve, but rather of nvidia. Try using an OLDER driver than the one you are using.

Reason is: nvidia/amd are continually trying to get more performance from their drivers, usually by "optimizing" them.
sometimes this breaks certain stuff.

^This, Nvidia drivers as of late have been a bit buggy (most notable issues revolve around drivers crashing mid-game)
