hey guys need a little help here , any advice would be appreciated
i've put together a new system under 1 month old
intel i5-750
msi h55-e33
team elite 4gb ram -1333
Sapphire HD 5770 1gb
win7 64bit home
OCZ modxstream 600w PSU
seagate 300gb internal 7200rpm harddisk
right off the bat i was having incredible amounts of bsods, random freezing etc. eventually i managed to narrow the problem down to the graphics card driver catalyst 10.3a beta drivers conflicting with realtek audio drivers. I always had the latest for both and it was causing all my conflicts.
I tried using solely the catalyst drivers but games run like crap because the game is slowing down to sync with the default audio driver. The 10.3a catalyst driver fixes that with its own audio driver included.
Once i removed the realtek drivers , it ran perfect.. no freezes , no bsod. Now the only problem im having is random restarts , i've noticed it happens after i'm done streaming video or sometimes after/during gaming . No bsod , no errors nothing , just BAM whole system restarts itself and rePOSTs .
I had a faulty Andyson 550w psu but i changed it to a OCZ modxstream 600w so i doubt it's a PSU issue. System has never been overclocked.
i've also ran memtest for a solid 10hrs and no errors at all with my ram. I'm starting to think something on the 5770 is causing a surge and my system is restarting to prevent damage. Previously i was using vista 32bit fully updated and was experiencing the exact same problems.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
