I was using CS6 today when suddenly there were flickers and stutters on the screen, the screen froze in a brown colour and then verticle stripes,.
the display came back on and it said Display driver stopped responding and has recovered.
Ive tried the following;
Reinstalling AMD drivers,
downloading the latest drivers
Rolling back the driver and installing the new one through the Device Manager menu,

shall i try reinstalling CS6?

Ive also noticed this happend in DayZ and Cod4 a few days ago, but i thought it was due to me Unparking my Cores + allowing my fps go into 300/400fps.

Hd7870
fx4100 oc'd to 4200ghz, 3.1v
8gb ram
asus m5a97 r2.0 evo
 
download driver fusion and latest amd beta drivers 13.11 beta 9

uninstall current driver and dont restart.
run driver fusion and clean the amd drier remnants, dont worry if it says it cant clean all of the remnants it still gets rid of the remnants that causes problems.
install the catalyst driver and do a custom and only install the display and hdmi driver.
