Title: ATI GC Issues Post by: Will Munney on 25/11/2011, 05:37 AM Hello all,
I am hoping someone will be able to help out with my current issue. At present i can only play BF3 for around a minute before it crashes to desktop. The past couple of crashes have resulted in an error advising that the display drivers have recovered from a serious error. (These drivers are the latest drivers that have been released for BF3.) Because of the corrupt drivers I have downloaded these several times (from differing locations) just in case i have received a corrupt file but to no avail, still the same issue. I did think at first it was an issue with the Realtek audio drivers (as some other people have had issues) so i purchased a Sound Blaster USB & disabled the Realtek sound card but was still crashing. Current Comp Specs: Asus P8P67 PRO V3 L1155 P67 Intel Core i7 2600K Processor LGA1155 G Skill 8G(2x4G) DDR3 1600Mhz PC12800 Gigabyte ATI 6970 OC2 2G Corsair Force Series 60GB SSD2.5 (Windows 7 pro only) Seagate SATA3 2TB Barracuda (Programs) Cheers Title: Re: ATI GC Issues Post by: CordlezToaster on 25/11/2011, 05:42 AM Have you tried underclocking your video card?

Have you tried rolling back to a previous driver for the video card Does it only happen with bf3 or does it happen with any other games especially dx11 games If other games only thing I can suggest is to reinstall of windows If only bf3 it could be corrupted game files causing the driver to crash so reinstall bf3 Title: Re: ATI GC Issues Post by: Will Munney on 27/11/2011, 09:32 PM We'll i have found out the problem & it looks like i will be sending the Graphics Card back under warranty.
I have just installed a 4650 & was able to play no problems. Also played MW3 but unfortunately the card overheated as it is a non fan GC. Now all i have to do is go through the pain of dealing with UMart. Title: Re: ATI GC Issues Post by: Psych0Kyller on 27/11/2011, 09:36 PM what kind of card doesnt have a fan on it?

Title: Re: ATI GC Issues Post by: Will Munney on 28/11/2011, 07:22 PM Yeah did try that before installing the temporary GC.
The GC displayed was in my HTPC, was never a system designed for games. |
