I doubt the card is overheating you would get unwanted pixels and wierd reactions during mediocre task or even on start up

Not necessarily! You could have an overheat and not have artifacts!

And overheating isn't the only issue that can cause a Display stopped responding issue - a faulty card, or overclock can cause it as well. All you have to do is look at the info I provided, or Google the issue.

Ummh i m such a dumb , too much information and things to do ... Can any1 help me private ?

AMD driver has stopped responding and has recovered

Windows 7 64bit - no matter which AMD/ATI driver - no support for display power save of latest Graphic-Card-series of ATI and possibly NVidia (maybe less or not occuring on 32Bit of Win7, but is constant on Win7 64Bit. Also, while crashes occur, even once after reboot, the applications/games running on top of the OS will gradually crash too.

Fresh OS install with latest or former drivers do not solve the crashes, nor do modifying bios voltage or software settings, or GPU reduced clocks, nothing eliminates or reduces the crashes, except the below


The ONLY solution so far that completely eliminated the constant crashes:
DISABLE Display and System power save

"Turn off the display "= NEVER & "Put the computer to sleep" = NEVER
(from Control panel >> Power options >> Change plan settings)


Btw, leaving Harddisk sleep after X minutes will not crash the driver.
