Error While Computing

(moderation:
I am getting quite a few Error While Computing errors while trying to run tasks.
I disabled power saving on the computers and such, which seemed to eliminate a lot of problems but I'm still getting these errors on a lot of WU's.
My gut feeling is that if I'm playing a game, and walk away for awhile while leaving the game running, the computer thinks it is idle and begins to work on the project, while the game is also using the GPU.
At some point in that process there is a conflict, i think..?? Does this make sense to anyone, and if so is there any easy way that has been discovered to work around this problem?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Here is some additional information, if it helps illuminate the situation any futher.

Did some more reading and realize that the solved NVidia thread was my exact situation. I was looking at a different error code than the one that is on the subject line of that thread.
I'll check driver versions (though I thought I've updated recently) when I get home and see where that stands in relation to the old NVidia thread.
