    Some new Nvidia video drivers includes some bugs. It's said that Nvidia Forceware 196.75 WHQL can not support Warcraft 3. If you installed this driver, your video card may cause fan problems, or even scrap your graphics card.
    Have you encountered problems caused by video card?

    All drivers have some bugs, they are never pefect. However I have never heard of drivers actually damaging the hardware. You have source to your info? Thanks.

    Nvidia has already removed a driver causing fan problems, they even do not warn users immediately, the latest bug was discovered by some game testers.
