Display driver igfx stopped responding and has recovered

I have been getting this very annoying black screening/flickering problem ever sense Big Bang.

Heres what usually happens. ill be playing the game maybe training or even just walking through town and all of the sudden my screen blacks out and then comes back in a few seconds. Sometimes my UI flashes on and off with everything frozen in place until I alt tab or go into or out of windowed mode.

The place it seems to happen the most is at Pap and Dojo when i get to Manon or Griffy. I am starting to think it happens whenever theres just too much on the screen at one time.

Heres my system Specs
OS: Vista 32 Bit
CPU: Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 900 @ 2.20GHz
RAM: 3033 MB
Video Card LogMeIn Mirror Driver, Mobile Intel(R) 4 series Express Chipset Family

Please help this is driving me nuts and i am contemplating a system restore to factory settings.

If you bought a prepacked PC from let's say DELL or HP , then you'r not screwed no. they normally update their drivers on their page, all you gotta do is find your model or Service tag. then check for new drivers to your model.
Also it really does sound like maple is causing you troubles due to their GFX increase, i belive the resolution got higher in BB patch ? , I'm asking because i just started again

TLDR:
Update your GFX card on your products homepage. (HP.com , DELL.com etc.)

Hey Gallion I'm having the exact same problem as you are. I have the Mobile Intel(R) 4 series Express Chipset, Vista Home Premium 32-bit, on a Acer computer though. I get a black screen or screwed up graphics with sound and everything else working cause I can hear myself buff and all. Usually happens at Manon, Griffey, and that blue dragon at Dojo if I get lucky enough to get that far without the graphics glitch. Very frustrating, tried everything. Nothing works as of yet.

It probably started right after big bang because you started playing on the higher resolution which is more graphics intensive.

I've seen this problem plenty of times. It's going to gradually start happening more and more while your graphics card slowly burns out.

[quote=chesapeake15]Try a system restore and see if that works. I had this problem about a year ago and was never able to fix it. But it only seems to happen with Vista. As it stopped when I switched to win7.[/quote]
Well i dont have a restore point far enough to before this problem started so ill have to do a backup and factory settings restore which are NOT fun and take hours. Then i have to install everything again.
