Tried on my MSI GT70, GTX 680M
launching just flicks the GPU-Z skin and then totally freezes the laptop - requiring a hard reset. 0.8.0 has no problems.

Desktop, AMD A6-6400 with Radeon HD 8470D, Windows XP 32bit SP3. I start the GPU-Z 0.8.1 - and it just reboots.
The same computer, Windows7 64 - seems to work ok.

I do get a total freeze of the PC when starting GPU-Z also, but not each time, just occasionally - it seems it depends on other running programs.
Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate, ASUS mobo, Intel Core i7 CPU, SAPPHIRE AMD Radeon R9 290 card (4 GB videoRAM) with latest AMD Radeon Omega drivers.

Seems to be driver dependent, 347.26 iCafe has no problems.

Can anyone confirm this is an NVIDIA driver issue?

Not the same, but another problem I noticed on 0.8.1. I tried to save the BIOS on a laptop with an Intel HD 4000, running Windows 8.1. It just froze the system.
