[Fraczish]

have had full system crashes whilst playing Crysis, Grid and FSX Ive recied the following error report

Error Message: STOP 0x000000EA THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER (Q293078)

im using 8.9 drivers

Any ideas about how to stop this? the card is only two weeks old, could it be faulty?

This issue might occur if the graphics adapter is caught in an infinite loop while it waits for the video hardware to become idle. This issue typically indicates a problem with the video hardware or that the graphics adapter cannot program the hardware correctly

thats what ive just resulted in a google search

I got the same but didnt really understand it, Does that mean there is Probably a Fault with my Card?

try reinstalling the drivers or try the 8.10 betas, if your still having the same problem, it will most likelly be a hardware fault

Put some more voltage on Your CPU and northbridge, and inprove Your cooling if possible

Seems like you might have this problem. The only thing that might fix it is a motherboard BIOS update.

A lot of people get it, but ATI wont even admit theres a problem.
