Brain Ache - Totaly new rig divers not responding :/
Hello, let me start by saying thank you for taking the time to read this as it involves a problem that is making me want to throw my brand new gaming rig against the wall!
Ill start by posting my computers specs:
OS - Windows Professional x64
Intel Core i5 760 2.8ghz
8gb DDR3-1333 RAM
650w ATX PSU
ASrock H55M-Pro 1156 mainboard (BIOS version: 2.0)
HIS Radeon HD 5770 GFX Card (Driver version: 8.762.0.0)
All drivers are up-to-date and temps are fine.
Problem:
Three weeks ago i put together this system using only the Hard Drive and a Nvidia 9800 GTX+ from my old system. After becoming extreamly excited hoping to play Starcraft 2 in all its glory i discovered that every 3-5 mins the screen would start to tear up and eventually give me the message.
"Display driver stopped responding and has recovered"
This as you can imagin rearly worried me so i spent many hours searching the internet trying to find out why this was occuring. I came across many different people with the same problem and tried a few fixes that i came across (I will post what i have already tried at the end). So after many failed attempts to fix this problem i decided to buy a new grahpics card hoping it would solve the issue.
So today i recieved my new HIS Radeon HD 5770 highly antisipating the fact i may have everything working just the way it is ment to soon! After installing the new card (removing old nvidia drivers + CC cleaner first) and updating to the latest drivers via the ATI site i am STILL experancing this error except this time rather than getting screen tears it just locks up!
So this means it is not a problem with the graphics card and must be something else and considering i have all the most up-to-date drivers and it is a brand new rig i am completely out of ideas.
Here is what i have tried already:
Turn off Areo
MSconfig boot menu upto full 4 cores
Tried many, many different drivers
Updated BIOS driver
Thank you for your time reading this once again and i thank you for helping me, this rearly is making me want to cry and scream!
Also i was not sure where to post this so i am sorry for the double post!
