"Display driver stopped responding and has recovered"

[Alhanelem]

Black screen then "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" which will cause ffxiv to crash because of the loss of display driver.(like alt-tabbing out of fullscreen does or turning off my hdtv does)

It happens alot during ffxiv play time. I expect to get it 10+ times a day. I have tried clean install, reinstall graphic drivers, underclock nothing works.

I notice that i will very often get it during browsing my retainer . Though it does happen during other times. I dont think i have had during battle thank god.

Is it cos of ffxiv? is my new gtx 680 the problem? I didnt get it when i played gw2 . FFXIV is going to explode soon so it less of concern for me but i wanted to know is this a common problem with ffxiv?

I do dual box using sandboxie .Though it has happened very often when i havent dual boxed.

It is a new pc so im a bit disappointed by this.

Most likely your video card is overheating. You need to stop playing the game before you damage it, and adjust your graphics settings in control panel- Turn up the fan speed to maximum.

The card works fine on other, higher stress games, is not getting anywhere near dangerous heat, and the problem is perfectly reproducible

FFXIV 1.0 is not your average high stress game. It takes WAY more resources than it should for the graphics it puts out. Have you actually checked your graphics card temperature while playing? "stop responding and has recovered" should almost never happen unless your card is overheating.
