Yeahh i had to roll back to a early 40's driver to solve the problem.
I gradually moved back the drivers until i got to vers 44.65 where i found that works fine,i took the chance to try some of the other lower drivers too and they seemed to work fine.
So for some reason the drivers above 44.65 don't seem to like DS but i have found that the latest Drivers Sux anyway crashing on alot of games.
Cheers guys

Update....
After spending a while in MV last night the problem seemed to have ended..hmm well this morning (GMT) i logged on tried again and low and behold the crashing prob was back so after a few choice words and scratching of the head i decided to have a look through the forums yet again after looking at a few remedies that had been put forward and checking them out only to find that non of them worked in my case i decided to try yet again other options AHHMMM.
So after messing with Graphics setting so on with no success i whent into the Audio section...i adjusted the Music lvl to 0 and the FX to 45 and for some reason that seems to work.
I'll test these setting a little more and post if it works

Nope the problem still persists even after setting the Audio and Graphics lvl's at there lowest.
After talking to a few friends it seems that i'm not the only 1 with this problem,the only thing i can think is that for some reason the last patch was incompatable with some peeps OS,oohhh well i'll keep trying and hope the next patch addresses this prob?
Thanx

My system seems to be similar to yours and I seem to have a similar problem co-incidentally after the newest patch. Well, the second newest.
Any breakthroughs?
