BSOD after about 30 hours of use, believe it is catalyst 12.2 related

Yes I understand that. Though strangely the trigger for me wasn't the 12.2 driver, for me this started since I moved to 12.4 driver to cure a problem I had with my second monitor randomly breaking on the 12.2's.

i see, well anyways, i didnt review your steps that carfully, you whent into program files, and prgram files x86 and deleted all the amd stuff right?

I did exactly as you said. I even disabled my network connection to be 100% sure.

I'm curious you rely on eyefinity with your 3 monitors... But your method means you don't have the Catalyst Control Center... How is it that you can still use eyefinity?

no i do, i only did this to fix the drivers, i guess i forgot to post that afterwards i do a full install again to get CCC, i do this AFTER i manually install the drivers though, NOT before, this is important. and to be honest i dont use full eyefinity, just run 3 side by side monitors, eyefinity runs 20%gpu on idle at times, sucks if your playing MoH or BF3 or cod or any other games with good graphics, things from crytech or unreal engine generally screw me over also. so i just run 3 side by side, and games i want to play on eyefinity, i just exit into windowed mode, and expand it close to the edges of my screen

What do you do a full install of, the 12.1 driver, or the 12.2?

after i have manually installed the 12.1inf, i go back and use the 12.1 installer to get ccc, however, when windows automatically updated your graphics drivers in one of the middle steps, it should have detected hardware and found ccc, just no drivers, this will allow you to runn full rez, and even tamper with colors, but quality is lower, and DX is not installed, nor can you play most games without running the 12.1 installer afterwards

Ok I get what you mean... If this problem persists I may make a thread dedicated to this issue and offer as many fixes as possible in the first post. Would I have permission to copy-paste yours?

sure, go ahead, although, if you wanna do some clean up work on it and add that last step of running the installer again, and just making things make a little more sence. im bad at typing instructions, ask me to speak them out loud to you ill do fine, but type them... na ah
