Event ID : 14 Workaround

For thoses of you who have a SLI configuration and get this in their event viewer.Image

Cause:
Something seems wrong with the nVidia driver when SLI is enabled and when you have windows 8+ Fastboot feature enabled (on by default) and also with CSM disabled in the Bios
The event will pop if your are booting from a cold boot (completely powered off state)

Workarounds :

1- Disable SLI
or
2- powercfg -H OFF (this disable the hibernation file, giving you more free space and thus disabling the windows fastboot that use the hybernation file to do its work)
3- Enabling CSM in the bios.


Note: Asus motherboard are less affected by this because they most of the time fail to work with the windows 8+ fastboot feature for some unknown reasons...

Edit: Seems fixed with 355.60
