BSOD Ever Since I Updated Video Card Driver

[jessebrownarrow]

I recently updated my graphics card driver and my computer has been bluescreening ever since. I think that is the problem, but I'd appreciate an insight that can be given.

Hello jessebrownarrow, unfortunately Your uploaded files contained no dump files, which are what we use to debug systems. Please make sure your system is configured for Small Memory dumps. This will tell you how, http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/174459-dump-files-configure-windows-create-bsod.html Next make sure there is a folder named Minidump in C:/Windows. If not, please create one.

In your error reporting I did notice quite a few errors in ClicktoRun.exe and InDesign.exe. You may start looking at those programs and see if they are updated and configured correctly. Those errors may be the source of your problems.

If you think your video card drivers are causing the problem, please reinstall them like this.

I am going to give you some links that will help you get a good clean install and not have any drivers you don't need that will conflict with other drivers. Download a WHQL driver from http://www.sevenforums.com/graphic-cards/329659-latest-amd-catalyst-video-driver-windows-7-a.html . Once you have them downloaded, uninstall you current driver from control panel. next clean up any left over drivers from following this tutorial http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/83814-drivers-clean-left-over-files-after-uninstalling.html and select only ATI Display Drivers. After you have done that and rebooted, install the new driver, only select custom install and install only what you have to. Very few people need most of what they include. You do not need the audio/HDMI drivers as you already have that in your Motherboard drivers. Unless there is some reason you need them, the only thing you really need is the Display Driver.
