Better explanation would be the Video Memory is never fully cleaned up and then 1080p I fails (in the context of only 256 MB) but that's also unlikely as it doesn't work after a reboot @ all again
Wait did you tried to turn off Aero on Win7 you can't unfortunately turn of DWM entirely that only works on Vista if i remember right, but then again it also shows the same issue on XP (where i still can't believe that a driver re install actually makes it possible to use the Video Engine @ all without a reboot) as you said, so nah im to confused with this issue if anyone else has maybe some thesis or knows about this (temporal works) issue i guess many would like to know what's going on on this users Nvidia Windows System .
for backing to the topic.

I'm sure it's not low memory problem because it doesn't get problem only after running a heavy graphic program.
I did even a clean install but got the same result.
It seems I need an easier way to reset the graphic driver

Edit: You were right. It didn't work in XP because it doesn't reset the video driver (no blank screen while installing and it asked to restart)
