Still having "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" Issues

[Capt1v1ty]

I sent it in to asus, I still have the black screen flickering and this error shows up!! I also bought the Recovery CDs from the eStore and still having the problem on the driver 285.62....I cant even play BF3... Does anyone have any other Ideas? I dont know what t do...I ran out of options.....I wasted 3 weeks plus $60....Im starting to hate asus prodcuts....Ive only had problems with there services and THEY dont KNOW A THING!!!!!! I would pay literally if someone could fix actually tell me why its going on....

Things ive tired:
-Reformat/Reinstalled OS
-Downgrade Drivers.... Which if i do...The older driver DOESNT flicker..But Freezes the PC and I have to Hard Reboot with holidng power button
-Updated Drivers/tried every single driver all the way up to the 290....
-Sent it to asus for repairs (RMA?)

Since you bought recovery disks, I'm guessing that's what you meant by "reformat/re-install?"

If you haven't yet tried a clean install, which is quite different from the recovery install, I'd suggest that as the next step. Troubleshooting on a fully-bloated Asus installation can be a massive exercise in frustration, as you've discovered.

I did both brody, a recovery and re-install.

A clean install? WIth only the essential drivers and no other Asus software?

Well I heard from someone that disabling the inter-graded video card messes up the cuda video cards? Could this be it?

The G74 Nvidia cards aren't CUDA-enabled, and the integrated graphics capability is disabled. So I don't see how that could play a role.

I had the same problem with my G73 "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" whenever i updated my driver to any version after 266.58, so i returned to stock 266.58 and is working fine again.

Try downloading and installing MSI afterburner, and *under*clocking your video card. If that cures the error then your card is faulty and can't handle the specs its rated for, in which case you could/should demand a new board from ASUS.
