ATI HD 5830 problem

[james18212]

After watching movies longer than 2 hours the screen becomes pixelated, freezes and then blue screens.

I watch the movies on vlc media player and have a 24 inch acer led display. The card is slighty overclocked with MSI afterburner.

Any help guys ?

Try removing the overclock.

As said I would get the card back to default and ensure that it's not over heating.

When was the last time you cleaned out the dust from the inside of your PC and graphics card fan/heatsink? 5830's are a few years old now so it could just be full of dust and so overheating.
