I have just got my new system up and running and am getting Video TDR Failure.

It's causing my system to restart a lot. Any help to fix it?

Ok I'm trying the fix from here: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1656824/atikmdag...

Where he says go to C:\Windows\System32\Drivers and rename atikmdag.sys to atikmdag.sys.old. I have two atikmdag.sys files.

One is larger than the other. Which one do I rename? Should these files even be there if I've uninstalled Ati drivers?

Your drivers aren't installed correctly.

"Order To Install Drivers"

Motherboard or chipset drivers
SATA controllers if not included with motherboard drivers
Smartcard controller
Video driver
Audio Driver
Network Interface Card (NIC)
WiFi Adapter
Touchpad, mice or keyboard drivers
Others, such as printers, scanners, camera, etc

Install all intel drivers before you install any AMD GPU driver.
If sometimes you'll have conflicting drivers you can reinstall them & repair them.
