Graphics Drivers failing and periodically Causing BSOD
I have recently started playing an old MMO and then shortly after that began getting these errors that crash my game and tell me that my graphics drivers have recovered from a serious error. At first this was merely annoying but twice now it has caused my
laptop to Blue Screen. And then after the second blue screen in the same night the drivers 'recovered' again but it must not have been much of a recovery because there were tons of odd pixels flashing everywhere!
After the second blue screen I was able to take this information upon reboot:

I have uninstalled and reinstalled my drivers with the latest ones for Win7 on the nvidea website. Didn't change the problem at all, I also installed the Service pack for Win7 also did not help. I've seen one or two threads on this issue upon searching but
none have mentioned a BSOD or any solution by the 20th post. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm running out of ideas on how to go about fixing this :(
My laptop specs are: ASUS G1Sn 2.1Ghz intel core 2 duo T8100, 4GB of ram, Nvidea 9500M graphics card and I'm running Windows 7 Professional x64 SP1
