I've had no problem with my amd graphics card for more than an year.But , about a month ago this....thing...started happenig.The screen randomly went black for a second or more each...1 or 2 or ...5 secods.I tested the monitor on a diffrent computer and it works just fine , also the GPU inside looks perfect.I uninstalled the AMD Display drivers and the issue stops , but as soon as I install them back the issue comes back.I have to coooompleeetly remove the drivers and reinstall them about..5-6 times every day ...because at some point they simply work.BUT if the computer goes to sleep or is shut down , then when waking up the problem comes back...and I have to restart that whole drivers uninstallin-reinstallin process all over again...please halp...

My PC Specs:
-Amd FX-6300 (No overclock)
-8Gb RAM DDR3 1333
-Sapphire Radeon6670 1GB DDR3 128bit
-500W Power Supply
-Windows 7

Also the monitor is just 1440 x 900 60hz

I used to have the newest ones...now I'm using 12.10 or smth like that ...from 2012 ....that "trick" only works with drivers from 2012 - 2013 ...believe me...I..tried .... a lot -.-

Without display drivers yes it might work, its just not using the full gpu, only simple stuff, its running same level as integrated graphics from early 2000's really. Not that hard for a discrete gpu to do, even when its starting to fail.

I sure would like to hope it is not the GPU ... lets say its not , then what else could it be ?
Although , if it really would be the GPU itself , I don't think that "trick" would work.Everything works just fine after that "trick" is done , 180FPS in League Of Legends as usual , aaaaall is normal :/ ...till reboot -.-

And what would you suggest in that situation if that would be the case?
Should I uninstall ALL the drivers ? Then install only the Display Driver first and see what happens?

As I said in the original post "I have to coooompleeetly remove the drivers" .I am using a program called Dsiplay Driver Uninstaller ( DDU ) for that , and it uninstalls just that , anything that is display related...the only thing that could remain ...sadly...is the GPU being somehow strangly malfunctioning...which is odd cuz it works just fine wheeen it does...
