I keep getting a display driver error and then the computer crashes with the BSOD. It happens quite often but I can't get the error message.

I checked my display drivers and according to the device manager, the drivers are up to date. I believe I have a AMD Radeon HD 7570

I don't know what information to give someone, but please help.

Hi hmedina62.
I keep getting a display driver error
Can you be a bit more specific? Do you get any popup balloon from system trey like this one?

Anyway, the issue is definitely display related. A stop 0x116 is display/graphics failure. And the display driver is not up to date. It is on June 2012.

Update it, but not to the latest. Uninstall your installed latest version of the display driver.

Then clean up any possible leftover.

Then install version 13.9 WHQL only.

When the update is done, stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.

As it is a branded desktop, one info is very important, The PSU. Let us know the wattage of the PSU.

Also, is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy. Alternatively, you can publish a Speccy snapshot too: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/311593-speccy-publish-snapshot-your-system-specs.html .

Let us know the results.

Display Error

That is the popup I see. I'll try your solution and let you know if it works. I had tried to uninstall and reinstall awhile back but couldn't get the driver to install. I did a system restore.

Hi hmedina62.

Can you be a bit more specific? Do you get any popup balloon from system trey like this one?

I have tried the directions below twice. I keep getting a failure error when trying to install the new driver. What is going on? I am attaching a screen shot of the error notices.

Well, try to install any other driver version.

Because, though this popup is caused for a bad GPU, but it is better to see the behavior with multiple versions of the driver before deciding a failing GPU.
