Windows 7 crushing and restarting

[Oberon]

Hello my new friends

i am an italian reader of this forum (i'm sorry for my ugly english), and i have a problem: my win7 os restart everytime he wants. Sometime he just crushes in a grey screen, sometime crashes while browsing and i cannot move anything and i have to hardrestard the pc, sometime he autorestart.

I tried to check the error list with the autocheck program of w7 and he gave me 53 errors... it's just 1 error repeated 53 times.

Windows
Problema: Errore nell'hardware video
File che contribuiscono alla descrizione del problema:
WD-20100413-1849.dmp
sysdata.xml
WERInternalMetadata.xml


this is the error message it gave to me.

I try to post also the rar file with the dmp so that someone can help me...


Please help me, i'm fighting with my wife every day because i want to keep w7 and she want me to reinstall win xp

Looks like your video card driver is causing the issue. Try updating it to the latest version.

i have tried with the latest catalyst.... 10.3 and 10.2 version for win7 64bit but i have the same problem...

My video card is the Ati Radeon HD 4870 Golden Sample

 

[Jonathan_King]

Uninstall the Catalyst suite; only install the driver itself.

 

[Oberon]

tried disinstalling the catalyst cc and then installing only the driver file... same result... i also tryed to use the pc without the catalyst installed but have same result... it crashes when the video card is under stress eg while playng world of warcraft or while passing through the windows with aero effect on... could it be a problem dued to something broken on video card?

Oberon,
That card is listed as "compatible" but is not logoed.

My experience has been that some products listed as compatible have problems.

Following is a cut and paste from the hardware compatibility list:
ATI Radeon HD 4870 ATI Technologies, ULC Compatible with
Windows 7 Compatible with
Windows 7 MediaCenter ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2 ATI Technologies, ULC Compatible with
Windows 7 Compatible with

Update the utility software found on your motherboard manufacturer's website for your board. This is specifically so this driver is updated:

ASACPI   ASACPI.sys   Sun Mar 27 22:30:36 2005

 

[Oberon]

i think it's all uptodate because i tryed to dowload and reinstall the latest version of chipset driver but nothing changed

Anyway i already had the file dowloaded from the asus website in my dowload root

 

[Oberon]

i don't know why but now everything works good...

I just tryed to reinstall the ASACPI driver and now averything ok... thanks a lot!!
