When i try to delete the nvlddmkm.sys file or replace it with your
instructions bellow - the system gives me this text when i reboot and
windows is about to start (regardless of safe mode or not)

"The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected
error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows click ok
to restart"

any help?

The latest Nvidia 158 driver goes through the process of eliminating older
versions. However, that is NOT the only problem and will NOT fix your system
permanently.

Various websites and a potential law suit talk about the problem of using the
8800 Series with Vista. When running DreamScene, DirectX 10.0 demos, and
video DVD's, a message pops up saying that Nvlddmkm.dll or nvlddmkm.sys has
lost connectivity and has been recovered. In some cases the computer has to
be rebooted and the offending programs not run again. In some cases, there
is a BSOD or other error messages.

Many solutions, including driver updates and elimination of older versions
of the drivers have been suggested. None of them work.

Well, for me the problem appears fixed; I simply turned off UAC!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everything has been running fine for an hour, which is a record.

My setup is as follows:

* Hardware and software firewall, antispyware, and anti virus software
* Asus Striker Extreme
* PNY 8800 GTX -- Driver version 7.15.11.5818 (158.15)
* 2 GB Corsair Dominator memory
* OC the CPU to 3.00 MHz
* Two Raptor RAID 0 drives
* External RAID 5 backup
* Creative X-Fi gamer

I really hope that this post helps people.
