This is an informational post for anyone who comes across the same error.
When running the PerformanceTest 3D tests under Windows Server 2003 with a Nvidia Quadro NV280 video card, there is the possibility with certain driver versions of a complete system crash to Blue screen of death (BSOD).
Crash details:
Device driver: nv_mini.sys
Crash details: 0x00000050 (0xbc42e808, 0x00000000, 0xf6563ab8, 0x00000002)
We have confirmed this to be a bug in the NVidia video card device drivers, but as of yet (Oct 2008) there is no solution available from NVidia.
