Hi all,
Whenever I try to update my AMD Graphics card drivers, the machine just freezes and colours on my screen turn in a load of horizontal lines so I have to hard reboot every time.
Also whenever I download anything from steam or anything largish on Chrome, my machine locks up for 8-9 seconds at a time, then it's ok for 2 seconds, then freezes again until the download is finished.
I have reformatted my SSD incase I had downloaded anything dodgy, and purchased a new graphics card (Gigabyte ATI Radeon HD 7970 Windforce 3X 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card) incase the old one had died. Exactly the same issue.
My games haven't been running too smoothly either, slightly lagging, but isn't show this as an FPS Issue.
I have a crucial 512 SSD which I'm thinking about replacing? I have tried taking the RAM out stick by stick but still cannot find out what the issue is.
Can anyone suggest what I should try next? I'm using Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium.
Cheers for your help.
