I recently replaced my 5770 with a 7770 in my computer but now i am having driver crashes if i try to do 2 things at once .
The most common thing i will be doing is Running WoW and watching a stream or you tube everything will freeze and then go black and tell me display driver has recovered from a fault (also WoW will need a restart as it stops responding). This never happened with the 5770 in the whole time i had it , the drivers are up to date if i check in catalyst and nothing else has changed . My system is I5 750 at 3.8mhz ( with nocture cooler) G.skill ripjawz 8 gig 1600 mhz Corsaire Hz650w power supply 2 x Seagate barracuda 1tb Hdd gigabyte ga-p55-ud3 3x lg 23"lcd's running in eyefinity the only other difference is i went from a display port adaptor + 2x dvi inputs to a mini display port adaptor + hdmi + dvi any ideas would be helpful |

Did you uninstall the old drivers for 5770 first before applying the new drivers for the 7770?

Yea give the beta drives a go, also I know this is a silly question but it has happened before to others here, did you plug in the power to your card ?

Unsure which catalyst I'm am using at the moment (at work) but I am under the impression it's latest as I downloaded it when I installed card . Thank you for the link I will try the beta see if that helps
Im pretty sure i uninstalled the drivers when I installed the new ones as part of installation but I will check Also yes I plugged in extra power cord , not a silly question at all usually the simplest solutions the right one Thank you all for your help hopefully I get it sorted at least I got some stuff to try now |
