Title.
I get both freezes where the screen turns black, my monitor goes on standy and there´s a couple of second of buzzing through my headphones and freezes where the screen just turns still. In both cases I get no error messages whatsoever and my only option is to manually shut down my PC with the power button or reboot it with the reboot button. Finally, I sometimes also but much less frequently get the message that the AMD display driver has stopped responding and has recovered, where I get a few second of unresponsiveness but it comes back up after a while.
I previously though the issue was lying in certain Microsoft/Windows services, specifically Superftech and Windows Image Acquisition, as I didn't get the freezes for a couple of days with them disabled on startup, but the freezes came back after a while nonetheless.
I tried to remove the drivers in the Device Managers and haven't had a freeze until now, but as I like to game and use Netflix and the the likes, I feel like using my actual card's drivers is necessary and optimal for display performance, so I'd like to find the root of my issue. I don't seem to get the freezes when using the standard on-board VGA/monitor graphics.
It might have something to do with voltage, but I'm not at all accustomed to making changed with stuff like that, so I might need some guidance if that's a possible solution.
I think I've downloaded every other driver and driver update for the rest of my hardware using manufacter-uploaded drivers respectively, so I doubt it's related to out of date drivers elsewhere, although it could be some form of conflict between hardware/drivers, most likely my GPU, who knows.
Here's my specs:
- W7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
- AMD FX-6300, Vishera 32nm Technology
- 4,00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 799MHz
- MSi 970A-G43 (MS-7693)
- Club3D Radeon R7 260 X royalKing Vapor
- 1TB Seagate ST1000DM003-1CH162 ATA Device (SATA)
- HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH24NSB0 ATA Device
- Realtek HD Audio
Thanks in advance for any help!
