Another "Display driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered" Thread

[drmcauley]

Hi Forum!

This is my last hope to find the problem, as stated in the title I am getting the "Display driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered" error periodically when using my computer (could be watching a movie, gaming, or simply idling). I have tried all the normal answers

- driver updates
- windows updates
- virus test
- etc

but this problem is still popping up. I have litteraly replaced every part in the computer (except for the case) and it is still happening. HELP!

My PC Config is

OS: Windows 7 HP
GPU: Radeon HD 6670 / Nvidia GeForce GT 520 (backup)
CPU: AMD FX-8320 8core 3.50 GHz
MOBO: ASUS M5 A97
PSU: Antec High Current Gamer 620W
RAM: 2x 4GB Gskill DDR3

CASE: Coolermaster Elite with blue LED fan lighting (for the luls)

~Kinda wishing i just bought a new pc from the start~

***UPDATE*** as I posted this I swapped my GPU for my backup (listed above) and so far so good which is odd because it was the original card that started this whole replacement spree. Still interested in a fix for the RADEON card tho.
