"Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered",NEED HELP?!

[ticklemelmo]

In AMD Overdrive I accidentally apply my HD 7950 to the highest settings and now my GPU fan gets loud and my screen keeps going off and on and displaying the message "Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered". But when I uninstall the Catalyst Center and latest drivers and use the disk with the old Catalyst Drivers, everything is OK.

So how can I get back into the new Catalyst Center and reconfigure the settings back to normal? yet I cant since it seems like it remembers the High settings that I put it at.


Specs:

Intel Core i5-2500K
BIOSTAR TZ77B
ZALMAN CNPS9500
NZXT GAMMA Case
HIS Radeon HD 79503GB
G.SKILL 8GB DDR31600.

RAIDMAX HYBRID 2 RX-630SS 630W
Windows 7 64-bit

AMD likes to leave trails of their drivers, run a driver removal tool and reinstall, should solve your problem. And dont' forget to give kudos for good answers.

Thanks for your guys help. I blew my 40ish dollar PSU doing this and got a better one. I had to manually uninstall everything AMD and then reinstalled latest drivers......and everything is good now.
