Hello, i made my custom pc on December the 20th of last year and last week i tweaked some things in the AMD catalyst overclocking tool and some settings in the BIOS and since, World of Warcraft and BF4 keep crashing when i try to play them. It freezes, the screen goes black and then comes back. A notice in the bottom right says 'the AMD display driver has stopped working and has recovered'. It didn't happen that often at first but now i cant even load up a game without it happening. I have since turned off and reverted all the changed i made in over clocking but still no use, along with the fact that i have reinstalled all my drivers for my motherboard and graphics card, that and reinstalling the AMD catalyst suite. Any help would be greatly appreciated, im so bored without WoW! xD
