AMD HD7770 BSOD 0x00000116

I have tried every driver version from 12.1 to the newest beta, uninstalling with "Display Driver Uninstaller" and had no luck. I've even unhooked my second monitor. BSOD occurs in anything that uses DirectX.

More information: Whenever I play a game that uses DirectX, it will start by flickering and give the "a driver has crashed and recover" text bubble many times over, eventually ending with a crash. I have been keeping CCC open lately to monitor temp and it hasn't gone over 65 celsius. FurMark maxes it out at 69 celsius without incident over 20 minutes on the stress test.

Let me know if you need anything else!

Just ran memtest86. Full single pass.
"Pass complete, no errors."

Time to keep looking.

Just tossed in my old HD4870 and haven't seen any driver failures yet. The only change made was hardware, no software changes/updates. I'll update in a day if it keeps stable.
