OK only time will tell re crash, may takew a few hrs
No problem, I have asked for some assistance on this as i am running out of ideas.
Im starting to lean towards Graphics Card hardware issues.
Just a thought:
Go to Start> computer > at the top click System properties, in the left pane click Device manager and tell me if everything looks ok in there, no yellow exclimation marks etc
cheers

NO - had been there - just checked again and all OK
Im starting to lean towards Graphics Card hardware issues
or the display itself.
Go to:
Start> computer > at the top click System properties, in the left pane click Device manager.
Under display select your card, right click and disable, reboot your computer in normal mode.
Now see if the problem exsits and let me know?
Also please check your ATI Radeon HD 5450 card is seated properly and all cables, connectors are secure.
cheers
Dave

Yes had already done the first part of this. So PC works without the CCC - what does it do then?
Hi,
Sorry, not following,
Done first part?
I assume you mean that? :)Start> computer > at the top click System properties, in the left pane click Device manager.
Under display select your card, right click and disable, reboot your computer in normal mode.
Now see if the problem exsits and let me know?
So is your Pc working fine without the CCC installed? Issues have disappeared or do you still have "fuzzy" problems?
ATI CCc is a software package that gives you more control over your ATI video card.
Catalyst Control would come in handy if your a graphics artist that needs to match colors or
tweak video output etc or gamer.
For the average user, it's rather useless and a lot of overhead.

I meant I had uninstalled the video driver and reistalled it in device manager. I will need a whole day of the PC not crashing to really kjnow it's working now.
All looking good - 24 hours with no crash as opposed to say a dozen times a day before so looks like we're sorted! Many thanks for your help.
Hi Maverick,
Great news, glad its sorted, please feel free to pop back if you have any other queries or problems, always a pleasure.
(Took a while but we got there in the end )
Cheers
Dave (Thanks also to Saurabh who I think did a great job in the first instance )
Have a nice day (You can mark this as solved now, cheers)
