I am no longer able to run any call of duty games in nvidia surround resolutions after nvidia driver 290.53. Starting with the 295 branch CoD games will instantly crash with a punkbuster pbcl.dll error when joining a punkbuster server. This happens when using the widescreen fixer or not and no I'm not running a cheat. Change the rez to 1920x1080 and all is well again but surround resolutions no longer work for me. Everything works perfectly with drivers previous to this. Can anyone else test this for me and see if they are getting the same problem? I have contacted punkbuster and they have been no real help and nvidia with all of their financial troubles refuses to fix their support forums. TIA.

Can anyone test this for me in surround to see if any CoD games crash for you? World at war, CoD4? Bueller?

Any driver for me past 290 series crashes with that punkbuster error. I've tried them all and it stops working on the release of the 295 series and beyond. I don't see how that could be unless it's something related to 3D Vision Surround. My system is 3DVS capable even though I am not enabling 3D for any CoD game. It worked great for years for me on Th2G and for about a year or so until 295+. Very frustrating. A couple other games of mine stopped working after 285. TDU won't even launch now with any driver beyond 285. All my other games work fine though on recent drivers.
