I http://byronmiller.typepad.com/byronmiller/2005/10/stupid_windows_.html read the incomprehensible message (as you know by now, the message never makes any sense to anyone but a handful of programmers at Microsoft and they're not telling anyone, or at least not me). Without choice, I shut down by turning off the machine, restarted, then initiated a clean shut down to flush the system of whatever caused the issue. Unfortunately, a few minutes later, the blue screen appeared again. I read the message again. I like to think I'm somewhat computer savvy, but the only information I could really get from the many lines of text was that the issue was caused by nv4_disp.dll. It wasn't much, but at least I had a clue. I started with a Google search, which lead me to understand, at least on some level that this involved my NVidia graphics card. Most of what I found suggested it was a problem with a recently installed graphics card, but since my graphics card has remain unchanged since I bought my computer last year, I knew that wasn't the problem. Brilliant, eh? My next stop was the Dell Support Web site where I searched for NV4_disp.dll and came up with a couple of r
one more kill… heart throbbing… clinched teeth… you wait anxiously as the final moment arrives… and suddenly its anticlimax… it all turns blue… yes, the dreaded Blue Screen of Death has knocked your desktop with all its glorious error messages. sighs… http://howtobyte.blogspot.com/2009/05/nv4dispdll-blue-screen-error-fix.html It has become recursive now. The more you try, the more often you get it. You http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/blue-screen-error-nv4_disp-file.37250/ have tried everything. You reinstalled the drivers, checked the graphics card, changed the RAM, tweaked the BIOS, changed the graphics settings, changed your power supply. Everything in your computer is changed except… There are many "fixes" on the web, starting from reinstalling the drivers to buying a whole new machine. I run Windows XP SP3 with NVIDIA FX5200 graphics. Almost a year back blue screen I started facing this problem. I tried as many "fixes" as suggested and few more. But the error was too loyal to leave me. Recently I managed to get rid of it. This is how I escaped BSOD. THE OBSERVATION It is not the drivers supplied by the NVIDIA that causes the problem. It is the driver that is shipped with Windows itself! I freshly installed Windows XPSP3 and tried removing NVIDIA drivers using Driver Cleaner Pro. Here nv_disp blue screen is what i got. Freshly installed windows already had the nv4_disp.dll nv4_mini.sys Other NVIDIA driver files The idea was clear by now. This problem is most likely caused by the windows drivers itself. THE FIX Install Driver Cleaner Professional.(It is not longer free. But its free version is still lurking around the web. Probably here) Uninstall your current nvidia drivers. Reboot windows in safe mode. (Show me how) After rebooting, windows will auto-detect the graphics card and try to install drivers for it. Just cancel it. Run Driver Cleaner Pro and under ‘Cleaning Selection' menu select ‘nVidia'. Hit ‘Start'.(This would delete the driver files and registry entries.) Reboot Windows in safe mode. Install the latest nvidia drivers.(Get me there) [84.21 drivers works best in most cases] Boot windows normally. It should fix most of the issues related to corrupted nv4_disp.dll driver. If it doesn't, there might be a hardware issue. Visit NVIDIA forum for more info. Please let me know if it worked, or a better fix if any.

I have a Dell Deminsion 8300 (80GB;2yrs old) running Windows XP Prof. On Friday (11/11) I started getting the blue screen error regarding the NV4_disp file and a continuous loop, etc. I had also received an error window prior to the blue screen stating "display driver failed" and my screen had a lot of static and was very slow. I spoke with someone at Dell and he had me run a bunch of diagnotics, said everything was fine and that I probably have a virus. They routed me to the "software" dept. at Dell and the next guy said there was nothing to be done. He had me set up a parallel Windows and told me to make a backup of any programs I wanted to keep because I'd have to reinstall the whole OS. I spoke with a third guy Sat. morning...he determined that I did have a bad driver (he also wondered why the 1st guy hadn't caught it!). He had me disable it and I could then get into my "old" windows. But now he tells me that since I did a parallel install that I should still redo my system because after a month or two it wouldn't work anymore!! I also started getting the error "SPRINGFLD_ADV_DAEMON:Wkscal.exe....entry point not found". I looked that up and have found that this error has to do with my Works Calendar. I spoke with a 4th guy today and he told me that I'd probably be OK with the dual install because I have 80GB, but because of the second error he would still reinstall everything. I'm VERY frustrated! I have a lot of info. on my computer and would rather not take the route they seem to be pushing. Since Dell
