I have a HD 4770 750M 512MB DDR5 DUAL DVI TV PCI-E and am experiencing a crash that it seems several others are too. I play age of empires 3 (a 5 year old game btw (and it also crashes with other games too)) a game that should give the 4770 no problems graphically. I have crashed in menu screens and in game. Last night I played around ten games straight with only a couple crashes, today I can't even finish one game without it crashing constantly. This is my second card the first I had to RMA because it experienced the same exact problem.
It first lags but I can still hear sound and move my mouse, then the screen and my mouse freezes, and the sound freaks out and plays the same sound over with a horrible loud buzzing noise. Next, the screen turns to a gray screen for just a second (sort of has little pixel grey lines) and then immediately after the screen goes black and I have to hit the restart button on the tower. I've tried working with XFX over the phone but they blame something in my system and not the card because they say its almost impossible for me to receive two bad cards (which I disagree with because I believe others have gotten a faulty card back as well). It crashes randomly it seems but only when running a game.
I have a very new build of good quality products so I don't know what the problem could be.
What I am running:
I have upgraded drivers to 10.3 on the 4770 graphics card.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit
AMD Athlon II X3 435 Rana 2.9GHz 3 x 512KB L2 Cach
ASRock M3A770DE AM3 AMD 770 ATX AMD
CORSAIR CMPSU-650TX 650W ATX12V
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 1600
and I have a DVI cable.
(nothing in my system is OC all is stock and I have upgraded all drivers)
Previously I had been using a 7950 which never crashed like this. I am thinking of preferably getting a fix for this card or if not returning it and going with Nvidia 9800 GTX+. It was very frustrating to buy a new card and have these kind of problems, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in Advance.
