I had problems with 306.97 and my GTX 285. I kept getting OpenGL errors.
I UNINSTALLED (not rollback) and did a CLEAN install of and older 29x.00 driver.

I wonder if updating such an old card has any advantage.
I have the 285 too and if you read the release notes it's all for gaming and newer cards and has been for quite some time now.

Nvidia does not even tell me there is a new driver.
I am on 301.42 but also had a couple of Open GL errors.
Thinking of rolling back to 295.73.
Is it me or is the forum soooooooo veryyyyyyyyyyy slooooooooooow.

It's the first time a nVidia driver gave me such a headache. I installed this driver some days ago. Today I opened Premiere, then my pc crashed (blue screen of death and all). It happed for three times. I thought my GTX 285 was done for, because some other games were crashing too (but it took more time for them to crash). It's good that I found this thread. Installed the 301.42 driver, worked on Premiere for half an hour, finished one project, and everything seems good. I lost almost one night cleaning my card, giving up, searching for help, but at least I don't have to buy a new graphics card like I thought I'd have to.

Thats bizzarre. Because for some OSX 8.0.2 users, the update to the Nvidia GTX285 and Cuda update, myself included, seemed to stop the crashes....See this thread http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1016670?tstart=60

Hi guys,
I was talking to the Nvidia customer support and the problem is FIXED by doing exactly this:
"Thank you for your submission. Can you try the latest 310.33 beta driver and see if that helps. There were a few bug fixes related to video that may help. You can download the driver here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/win8-win7-winvista-64bit-310.33-beta-driver.html. When installing the new driver please select the "Custom (Advanced)" install option and then put a checkmark in the "Perform clean install" option. "
this is beta driver for 64bit win7-vista.
I did that, it works, no more crashing so far.

For what it's worth, installing the beta driver version 310.33 did not solve the problem for my GT 240 under Windows 8 Pro 64bit. Immediate OpenGL crash upon opening Premiere Pro CS6.

Did you try a 2xx driver? (I think I suggested that in your message thread)
Copy link to clipboard

Yes I did; I tried the two 2xx drivers that I found on nVidia website (295.73 and 296.10). With these drivers I was not able to enable the Mercury Engine. GPUSniffer reported that it did not find a math-capable GPU.

The action of enabling MPE seems like a different problem. Like your card isn't working right. By this you mean MPE is greayed out and you can only select "Software Only"? As you know, MPE only supports certain cards, GTX 285 is one of them. So not totally confident its a driver issue here . Do you have CUDA installed as well?

The issue is that the 3xx drivers are buggy to the point of being useless on my machine and the 2xx drivers don't support Windows 8.

Yes it sure does sound odd..... I'm on a Mac, so I feel your pain. Some of us had major crashing issues ever since 6.0 was released and were never able to use MPE...the latest cuda and Nvidia updates have helped for most. Haven't heard of many other issues on windows like yours.

Thanks p-e-3-k!!! Works for me. I installed the new beta version 310.54 driver just like you said, and everything works fine for now.

Dear 13. p-e-3-k,
Thank you so much for your post. I updated to the 310.33 beta driver and after 10 minutes of blissful scrubbing I am confident that my GTX285 is happy once again. I've had the same set-up for over a year and no idea how the bug was triggered. Again, thank you!

Damn right! I'm here because of the 'total crash fest' with my premiere pro cs5.5 and GTX 285! It happened after a recent "forced" update by Nvidia. The Nvidia Driver update was optional at first and I neglected the update for a while - until today, I shut down the computer this update installed by itself while the windows was shutting down, I thought it was harmless... Oh no! Here I am! I've been scrambling all over sites, searching for quick solutions. My Premiere Pro CS5.5 keep on crashing right after I scrub on the timeline. I thought my card was dying. And I am getting impatient as I use PPRO for a living. Got to meet the deadlines and to pay bills! Damn it.
I felt like this update 306.47 update was an attempt by Nvidia tricking their customers into buying a new card thinking that the older cards are not working anymore. Probably a silly thinking or a true story? Sigh. Thought the horror days of this particular kind of problem are over. I feel like I'm back to the days of Windows 98...
tclark513, thanks for posting this!!!!
