OK, I can now reliably and always reproduce this.

I have tracked the issue down to having antialiasing set to 8x. Other antialiasing values do not cause the crash. The only other video options that seem to have any effect are Objects Quality and Terrain Quality.

Since the first 2 crashes I have updated from Catalyst 12.6 to 13.1.

1. Set Antialiasing to 8x, Objects Quality and Terrain Quality to Standard
2. Load into this mission: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/34730455/a3/crash_mission.zip
3. Zoom using the right-mouse button
4. Display driver crashes

Resulting RPT, bidmp, Windows events and updated DxDiag: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/34730455/a3/gfx_crash_13.1.zip

Whether I have Fraps loaded or not makes no difference. I've also tried both windowed and fullscreen mode, no difference either.

My video settings as of the last crash:

*View*
Display Mode: Window
Resolution: 1280x800
Aspect Ration: 16:10
Interface Size: Normal

*Visibility*

Rendering Resolution: 100%
VSync: Enabled

*Antialiasing*
Antialiasing: 8x

HDR Quality: Low
Anisotropic Filtering: Disabled

PIP: Disabled

Texture Quality: Low
Objects Quality: Standard
Terrain Quality: Standard
Cloud Quality: Disabled
Shadow Quality: Disabled
Particles Quality: Standard

I can also confirm this. I've been crashing once every 10-20 minutes or so, and I just saw Deadfast's post about antialiasing. I turned it down from 8x to 4x, and have been crash-free ever since. However, it doesn't happen just when I'm zooming in, but seemingly randomly. I monitored GPU temperatures and they never exceeded 62 degrees celsius. I'm using a Sapphire AMD Radeon HD 7970 3GB OC with the Catalyst 13.1 drivers.

I don't necessarily have to zoom in either, it's just a sure way of reproducing it immediately.

Issue closed as obsolete. If you encounter this problem again, please create another ticket. Thank you.
