afternoon all :)
hi, this thread has been popping up all over the internet n is pissing the livin hell owta every1 i shud imagine,

to save me retyping it all
http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/276896-15-radeon-5750-display-driver-stopped-responding

ill brief it, basically when im performing general computering my screen will go checkered, crash, turn a solid colour and respond and return to desktop...(sometimes) other times i have to force shutdown, but if it does respond i get a noteification that the Display Driver Stops Responding and has recovered, however when the card is under load (gaming) its fine,


believe it or not i got rid of the problem...... then my pc started to get cocky when POST'ing, it would hit n miss , it would turn on, fans go full belt but no POST =/ curious i ran the windows mem diagnostics , n it sed i had a problem =/ so i took it into technicians for them to properly diagnose the problem, n to my surprise they didnt fix the problem but added to it by giving me this bloody driver error back, it was fine before it went in >.> anyways, ive been looking on the internet, came here n a guy called Battsman found a workaround whereby i have to create a new profile n set the idle parameters higher so it was more stable at idle , so i did this but when i opened notepad to edit the files values of the new profile it was suspicially HIGH

<Feature name="AutoTuneSupport" />
<Feature name="CoreClockTarget_0">
<Property name="Want_0" value="40000" />
<Property name="Want_1" value="60000" />
<Property name="Want_2" value="85000" />
</Feature>
<Feature name="MemoryClockTarget_0">
<Property name="Want_0" value="120000" />
<Property name="Want_1" value="120000" />
<Property name="Want_2" value="120000" />

i dont wanna apply this profile as those idle values seem a lil high if u ask me, i dont know if its values were that high because it was made when playing a game...... so that the troubled crashing didnt occur when setting up the profile, any1 got any advice? also if ur HD 5770 works fine idle, what are your idle values?
