ok so, i was running my amd 6950 originaly all fine. then i sold it and removed all drivers from control panel uninstall and used driver sweeper then installed my old nvidia gts 250 and did nvidia drivers. also ran fine with no problems.
then i did the same today when i swaped the cards over for my new his ice q boost 7950, control panel uninstalled the drivers then did driver sweeper and installed amd drivers,
but the problem is my games keep randomly locking up and then the screen goes black for a few seconds and then switches the game back on which is laggy and then it runs fine again until it locks up again!
does anyone know what problem could be?i hardly doubt its my psu playing up as its only a few months old
i overclocked the card the card a little bit when i first put it in and now i have it all stock and the same problems
any ideas?
