Recently when i installed windows 10 on my ssd(and before i installed windows on my sshd)my driver kept crashing,but now more often.It says that the display driver 361.75 has crashed and recovered(this time i was playing Hearthstone anddd...the sound after the crashed was at max(RIP ears),but is crashing when I'm watching Youtube.
My system is:
ASRock Fatal1ty Z97x Killer
Intel I5-4690K 3.5 GHz Box
GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 970 GAMING 4GB DDR5 256-bit
Seagate Desktop SSHD 2TB 7200RPM 64MB SATA-III
HyperX Fury Red 8GB DDR3 1600 MHz CL10
Corsair CS Series Modular CS750M
Corsair Obsidian 450D
CPU Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Razer BlackWidow 2014 - Stealth Edition
Samsung SM951 256GB AHCI M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 80mm
I have OC on my cpu(4.5 Ghz)and on my GPU (+ 130 on the core,and +200 on the memory) I had it higher but I thought the crashing was from the OC,so I dialed back the OC on the CPU and GPU.
 
Solution
Try taking the gpu overclock completely off, +130 is still a heavy OC.

You could be suffering from voltage fluctuations under load as that's not the best quality PSU. Any power issues wil show as stability problems

My Alienware 15R2 is doing the same thing. Brand new, from the store with Windows 10 factory installed. Intel graphics 530 driver crashes, and recovers. I have tried different drivers and a could of fixes that I saw on the internet. Nothing has worked so far. I have new Ram coming today, and I'm going to try that. I'll let you know if it works. I have most of my trouble when I;m scrolling through menus on EBay, or New Egg. It plays games flawlessly........But only seems to crash when I'm online, and using my wireless mouse to scroll. Yes, I've tried another mouse. No difference. Maybe we can solve this problem for both of us.

You didn't saw may hightest OC :p (was +160 on core and +280 on memory,but i had to crank up the voltage even thought it would go above 1243 at all),and is stable now (in benchamarks i don't see artifacts or anything)is just the driver failing,not the OC.(i think,is just my opinion)One more thing,is crashing even when is at stock(starcraft I'm watching you,that game hates my card,3 out of 5 times its crahing the driver :(( ) the psu had great reviews when i bought it 1,5 years ago,but could be a posibility,even if the voltage in afterburner is stable,with no fluctuations.
