Hi,

I recently started getting VPU Recover errors when playing games.

It all started when I tried to play Crysis with some extreme config that was probably to much for my PC.

I said OK, let's remove the driver and reinstall, it didn't work. After i got frustrated I formatted my PC and I still got the message.

I tried turning ATI Overdrive off and it worked, but the problem is I want to turn it on so I can get better results from my graphics card playing games, and it wasn't like that before, I used overdrive many times before and this message didn't appear until that damn Crysis config....

What should I do? is the card damaged?

my pc specs are:

Processor: Intel Core 2 QUAD Q9450 2.66GHZ
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L
Memory: GEIL 4GB DDR2 800MHZ CL4
Hard Disk: WD 250GB 16MB SATA2
Video Card: GIGABYTE RADEON HD4850 512MB DDR3

Thanks
