G'day all, I am having problems with my display drivers crashing and recovering. The problem started a week ago just after i installed the game prototype 2.I have replaced my graphics card (thinking it was on the way out) only to find the problem persists. Initially i had problems installing the new graphics card and had to reset cmos before it would run.
I had recently updated my motherboard and cpu(2-3 weeks) as i could not get a clean install of windows and was told one was at fault.
I have: ASUS maximus vii hero motherboard
Intel Quad Core i7 4790 3.6GHz Max 4GHz HD4600 8 Threads LGA1150 CPU
sapphire Dual-x R9 280x graphics card
4 sticks of ram 4g corsair vengance
1000w galaxy enermax psu
I have changed out my 850w psu for the 1000w psu thinking that was the problem, but no joy.
The old graphics card used to get the display drivers stop responding followed by a lockup (could see the screen but not move mouse, alt f4, ctr alt del, etc) new card does not lock up but constant display driver recovered if watching movies, surfing net or playing games (causes games to crash).
All windows and ATI drivers are up to date as is bios.
Could this have something to do with RAM? About the only thing i have not pulled out but it has passed memcheck and voltage and temps seem ok..
