This problem I will describe also happened with the character creator they released a few weeks ago, but no other game or program I own.
The screen will randomly go black during dialogues or movement, have not seen it during combat yet. It comes back after approx 10 seconds, and when it does, framerates go down and the graphics quality gets poor, as if the graphics driver stopped working. I can still play, but it does the same thing over and over again. I shut down the program, and I see a warnign triangle on my taskbar telling me that "the nvkdllm( sp?) driver has stopped working, but has recovered". I have to shut down and reboot my comp for the graphics to return to normal, and framerates to come back. Just last night, I upgraded to 191.07 driver to see if that would remedy it, but it hasnt. I was on the 185.xx driver before. It is not a heat issue, as my graphics temp never climbs above 65 celsius, I do however notice that both my cpu cores are always running at or very near 100 percent.
System:
evga 790i ultra
e8400 dual core 3.0 ghz (oc to 3.6)
4gb patriot viper ddr3 2000 memory
evga gtx 285 vanilla.
Any help would be appreciated

Ok, now it happened just at the start of combat, in the temple at Haven. I had my GPU monitor up at the time, and when the screen cam eback, the video card had dropped out of 3d mode, and downclocked itself to 2d levels. Bioware help please!!

your display drivers are the problem, try updating/repairing them

I have a similar problem with ATI card (4870) and current drivers. After about 3h into the game I get frequent driver lockups (mostly there are texture glitches before).
I checked for an overheating problem, but that wasn't it (GPU was at 50 degrees). After I rebooted the PC everything was fine again.
Looks more like a memory leak or some other problem that gradually builds itself up over time to me.

If you actually read the whole post of mine, you will see that this happened with the character creator, and with an older set and the newest set of drivers.
BTW, I always do a thorough clean of old drivers, using Driver Cleaner Pro, so it's not that.

26.100+ Nvidia driver errors found using Google concerning this issue.. so maybe you just own this game that makes your driver fault... there is no evidence that this is a specific DAO error.. more likely a Nvidia vs DirectX issue. Only thing to do is to:
1) Try setting the graphics to lowest quality as possible (im not talking about resolution here) and then turn on one feauture at a time and see if that makes a difference.. it might be a corner of the drivers that are faulty or makes them react
2) Try several different drivers set..not only the newest but also older drivers or the default MS drivers
3) Reinstall or install another OS (I would recommend XP or Windows 7 and avoid Vista)

I found the problem. It is somehow connected to antialiasing. I had it cranked all the way 8 or 16x I think. I turned it off, and played for 7 hours straight with no glitching. Now we just need to get that fixed so I can turn AA on again.
