I recently got a r9 280x sapphire dual-x on ebay. I have a FX-8370,xfx 550w bronze 80+ PSu, 970A-D3 rev 3 mobo, 16 gb (8x2)ram corsair vengeance. I have the latest bios and drivers, but when I go to play a game like skyrim or do a burn in test on kombuster I get either get "display drivers have stopped and successfully recovered" or get was blocked from accessing I think the hardware.

I bought the video card from a litecoin miner, could there be some settings in the video card where its is optimized for mining but not gaming?

Used that Display driver uninstaller in safe mode and reinstalled the drivers. It worked. A few games, skyrim and war thunder gave me the application blocked from accessing graphics hardware error. I uninstalled Skyrim via steam and got a refresh download instead of installing from a backup. After the fresh install skyrim works on ultra high. I have not reinstalled war thunder yet.
