Based on web searches, it seems like maybe an NVidia driver issue?  Best if you try the Tech. Support forum on this BBS.

Hope you get it fixed soon.  :salute

My experience indicates that graphics drivers get jumbled easily on Windows systems but if you are using Vista best thing to do is get the latest driver by the card manufacturer and avoid generic Nvidia drivers. Also on Vista if you mix creative and Nvidia cards on a shared IRQ this will come up more frequently. If you are using Vista let us know.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

I used to get the BSOD with NV4_DISP.dll in the error message.  So I then called my video card manufacturer who pointed to me that I should check out my PSU, which was the source of the problem (a dying PSU).  I say this because, the cause of the BSOD can be very diverse.  I had a squaddie that would suffer random BSOD (with the NV4_DISP.dll message) playing games and after getting a new PSU and video card, it turned out it was his motherboard.
