amd display driver crashing

Ok the rest of the system specs are

AMD Phenom II x4 2.8
6 Ram
PSU- Corsair Enthusiast Series TX 650W V2 High Performance '80 Plus Bronze' Power Supply

I have not really changed the voltages and core speeds as i am not entirely sure how to excuse the noobyness :P
 
Going to give it a couple days and see if anybody has a solution , hope that it doesnt come to RMA
Thanks every1 whos attempted at a solution so far :)
 
Just managed to get my machine going again!!! It happened within about 5 mins.

After reboot I changed colour settings to 16 bit, removed some on board power managment rubbish that came with the mobo and changed windows power settings to Full.

The only other thing I have done is set my 1090t to 3.7Ghz simply by using the onboard OC feature on the IV board.

I have watched a few flash movies and have now had the system running for the longest it ever has without crashing. Now installing a game to see how that goes.

Thanks

Keep me updated :)
i can now run movies and most games however the moment i crack the graphics up all hell breaks loose with the driver stopping
 
Installed Black OPs a whle ago but fails as soon as it gets past the intro everytime. Will try someother things tomoroow.

You say you can play games now and watch movies. What helped the most?

Reset the card to default settings, reinstalled the drivers, made sure all other drivers were up to date.
just the basics really but seems to have got it at least working enough to play some games and play movies however would really like to get it working properly as right now it is playing games only slightly better than my previous card, otherwords waste of 120 odd quid on the card if there isnt a fix. And still the crashes as soon as pump the graphics up
 
I bought a second hand 5770 (card in my sig) and i have this issue aswell. The strange thing is it only ever does it during WoW, no other game.

But it happens quite often in WoW and is very annoying.
 
Just forget it, Microsoft has had this problem for awhile and aren't saying a damn thing about it.

I suspect its something to do with DirectX or another middleman driver.
 
'just forget it' isn't going to allow thousands of people to start playing games though is it!

I've got loads if things to try tonight when I get home from work, will let you know the outcome.

Also download Msi afterburner to adjust your cards settings
 
Agreed, defientaly windows. This is stopping from returning my card and getter another or different one. I'm pretty sure the same thing will happen.

After a few nights of trying I might try xp and vista
 
Well after reading all of this i am not sure whether RMA is the best option, seems to me that if it is a problem with something else then sending the card off is going to be a waste of time and money for it to come back working perfectly on the testers machine. Or am i just being daft?

I have not found any other solution yet but to be honest i have a fair bit of uni work to do at the moment so dont want to mess around too much as i need my comp for that. Will try and find a few other things to try tonight.

Let me know how u guys get on
