Hi,
So I've been having this problem for a while now....
I will be on the desktop and be watching a movie in Media player when all of a sudden my PC would freeze and then get a message saying my video driver has stop responding and has been recovered and sometime youtube video/any video on the web would just be green. After having this issue for a couple of week I thought I was my driver and decided to uninstall it and stick to what driver windows update give me.

Now on the windows version of the driver, my PC still freezes but instead of it recovering I get a Blue screen of death.


Anyone have idea, is my card dying.
I don't really seem to have problem tho when playing a few games here and there

It seems to be dead. I would not want artifacts to be the next symptoms of death. Time for an upgrade.
