ATI Display Driver Stopped Responding And Has Recovered
Dec 12, 2009
I have just installed windows 7 on my pc (a clean install from xp) my pc and hardware was running fine on xp but since I upgraded to win 7 I keep getting a “Display driver stopped responding and has recovered” warning pop up, its really bad its happens 50 something times in the last few hours!!! You get a freeze and or a black screen then it works again for a few minutes.
As soon as I try and go on the internet with IE 8within seconds it does it. It will also do it if I start doing stuff on the desktop as well or even if I am typing a MS word doc so its not just IE 8.
The graphics card is a Sapphire HD 3850 AGP I have tried the latest 8.671.0.0 drivers but it is really bad with these installed it completly crashes and blue screens and restarts so I am currently using the ones windows update put on which is 8.632.1.2000, it still freezez lots but no blue screens so it is a little better.
Has anyone got a fix for this because my new win 7 pc is currently unusable until I get a stable driver sorted.
I built a system a while back and have been updating it constantly, at the moment I am running AMD 1100T, Asus ROG Crosshair V, 8GB Corsair Vengance RAM, Sapphire HD6950 and Corsair TX750 PSU. I've changed literally everything in it. From memory (4gb Kingston) and mobo (GA 990FX) to processor (AMD 1090T) to GPU (6870 Asus), have done multiple clean installs with win7 64bit, edited registry by adding a QWORD Tdr value and finally disabling it with TdrLevel 0 and im still getting god damn display driver recovered message.. the amount of money and time alone I have spent on this is rediculous
everytime i tried to open any 3d game, it runs. but after 5 seconds or so, it freeze for a few seconds, then play for another few econds, then it freezes again, then play, then freeze, then play, etc, each freezes lasts longer and eventually the game crashes. this problem made no 3d game playable on my laptop, but Internet, flash, and etc doesnt seem to crash.
I am writing this from "safe mode" since my system is not stable enough to run and write this at the same time.My problem started when playing League of Legends (Dominion) Normally i would not have a problem, but once in a while the screen would freeze, occasional artifacts would show on screen. Screen would go black for a second or two, and a pop-up lower right corner would show, saying: "Display driver Nvidia version xxx whatever stopped responding and has recovered" This was not so much of a problem really, since it only happened in the beginning of the game, i searched the forums (league of legends) and noticed other people complaining about this as well, so i figured it would be dealt with at some point by someone else.
The problem is this started happening more and more often. So i decided to update my nvidia drivers to the newest version. Changed nothing, it actually made it worse from what i could tell.. So i downgraded to some older drivers.. didn't change a thing. And yes i did everything by the book, deleting all folders, safe mode driver sweeper etc. I also updated windows 7 completely, since i had the bug where a certain update would "jam" the windows updater, i updated it manually.I then tested different stuff. If i opened Nvidia control panel, and marked the section where you see a slowly spinning logo, after 20-40 seconds my screen would flash black a couple of times, and the message "display driver stopped etc" would pop up.I tried running furmark stability test, i could hardly see the first "image" when running the test, it would shut down instantly. When running minecraft, just running the exe and logging in to the menu, would cause strange artifacts after 10-40 secs and also jamming the system, flashing black and responding with: "display driver stopped etc" (in this case i downloaded Ntune, to monitor the graphic card temperature, it climbed from around 40C to 70C)Currently i'm at a point where i boot my system, and when i hit(as in arrive at) desktop, my screen starts flashing b"l"ack and forth. As in showing the desktop and showing a black screen, flickering.. and then rebooting automatically.
So i just got a 550 ti from evga and its great but it crashes to desktop every in games when I play them for at least 5 minutes. Heres a pic of what it look like except i have the latest drivers (270.61Any one have an idea oh here is what the thing looks like the event viewer "The description for Event ID 14 from source nvlddmkm cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted.
I am posting this thread to explain my problem. I have windows 7 ultimate 64 bit and a graphics card "Nvidia GeForce GTX 550 Ti". Everytime when I start up my computer the computer screen lags and then windows gives me a message "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered". I have realized that this only happens when I connect to a wifi network. I have searched the web if anyone else had a problem like this but it was no good and I started this thread
while I am using my adobe premiere pro CS4, and started to make a sequence, it suddenly stopped responding and this message appeared in my taskbar:" display driver has stopped responding and has recovered.display driver nvidia windows kernel mode driver version 266.19 stopped working and has successfully recovered."
my screen goes black ever once in a while when i'm playing games and it saids disk driver display has stopped responding and has recovered what do i do or where do i go to check this problem
Iam using Dell inspiron n5010, from recent i am getting "display driver stopped responding and has recovered" while laptop running. suddenly screen brightness going up. sometimes bluscreen coming and suddenly going shutdown.
I'm at my wits end.Using the SF diagnostic tool, the only button that didn't pull any info was the minidump. I've changed the setting so it doesn't restart, and to a small size as well. Even after a restart, no info is pulled from the minidump button.Screenshots of cpu-z is also in the zip folder. The ram mon .html file is in as well.
The first is when I try to play games (for example Far Cry 3), the screen goes black, and when it come back, i get this error: Display driver AMD has stopped responding and has recovered But, sometimes randomly i get BSOD (stop:0xa0000001). It's so annoying, becase i got this problem when i have 8800GT GPU, and I changed this GPU two days ago to HD 7850 (2Gb), still have the problem. Then, yesterday i changed my trashy 500W 'deer' PSU to a Chieftec (450W), nothing has changed.
I was using my dell computer for 2 hours when the screen went to red and bluetriangles. After many days of messing with it I still get "display driver stopped responding and has recovered" message.
I have had this Display Driver has stopped responding and has recovered successfully error ever since I have purchased my HD 7770. I contacted HIS and they told me to disable ULPS. I have but it still crashes. The speeds of the card have not been touched and temps when Idle are 27-30c.
I cannot even render a video in Sony Vegas Pro without it getting the error. when that happens vegas pro crashes and i must start the render again. other times are in games.
Counter Strike Source crashes when I get the MOTD (message of the day) or I select to buy weapons. if i start the game again its all fine?!?!
I have a 700w CoolerMaster eXtreme Power Plus Catalyst 12.4 (most stable I have tried 12.6) CCC overdrive settings. Core: Default Mem: default Power +20 for extra headroom
Right for a while i've been suffering from a problem where whilst playing certain PC games (i.e. Empire Total War, Battlefield Bad Company 2 & even Spore) the game begins showing black screens followed by a complete crash of the game, me having to ctrl+alt+delete it and be given this message at the bottom right of my PC ("Display Driver nvidia Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 301.42 stopped responding and has successfully recovered").
For people having the "Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has recovered" problem and the following Kernal-Power BSOD, try using a VGA cable to connect your monitor to the graphics card instead of a DVI cable. This worked for me for some reason, and I had no problems for over a week.
DVI is better than VGA ("DVI eliminates the analog conversion process and
improves the connection between source and display"), but I dont see any difference tbh. It doesn't slow down anything (for me). Don't know if this fixes the problem for all people. Let me know please
My Video Card and PSU are less that 4 months old.Upgraded 1GBx2 sticks ram to 2GBx2 sticks, which totals 6GB of RAM.The only time I get this error is when I open Star Wars: The Old Republic, or play other games for longer than about 5 minutes. Normal operations such as browsing the internet, skype, chats, Adobe programs run fine.The steps I have taken are:I have changed Timeout Detection and Recovery Completely deleted and re-installed (New) AMD Drivers.Completely deleted and re-installed (Old) AMD Drivers.Memtest86 (no errors)Checked Temperature 41°C Checked Voltages and Amps, both were fine.Did a CCleaner Ran Free Windows Registry fixed DriverSweeper (in the appropriate times during steps)BIOS is up to date Ran Windows Updater Re-Installed Windows Vista Upgraded DirectX Different Power Outlets Changed Windows Aero to Classic?
So I have a pretty terrible problem. Right now, I'm running Windows 7 Build 7100 on a Toshiba Satellite Laptop with Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor T3400 at 2.17 GHz and it runs beautifully.
My only problem comes when I'm playing a little game called Guild Wars. It runs pretty good for a while and then I run into my problem. My problem is that my screen goes completely blank and then reappears with this error message.
It happens to me every time I play Guild Wars. It never fails.
Anybody know why it does this? Any advice on what to do?
if i am playing league of legends i am getting an error named 'display driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered'.. dont know how to fix this.. i tryed newest patch but still it is not fixed, i tryed older versions but still no succes.. uninstalled the game and installed it but that dont work either.. i got a GeForce GTX 260 oc.
Started about a week ago. Screen goes blank for a few seconds, screen returns and the message above popped up. Some days, it only happens once or twice, on others, it can happen a good 3-4 times in the span of an hour.
I have come across the message (from a video card failure) that says "Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered." The solution is to do all of the following steps:
1. Uninstall all video drivers 2. Update your drivers to the latest version 3. Update your bios 4. Try different PCIe/PCI/AGP slots on your motherboard 5. Try different power rails coming from your power supply - make sure your power supply can support your graphics card. 6. Update your version of Direct X 7. Update your chipset drivers 8. Go to your video card settings>advanced settings> and set everything to application controlled 9. Go to your video card settings>advanced manage 3D settings> and turn off vertical sync 10. make sure your card is not overheating 11. Memory can sometimes cause video problems, run a memtest 12.Check out these posts Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding - Info about TDR and other info [URL]
Set 9 is what fixed my problem. If none of this works reinstall your OS and try all these steps again.
I've had my laptop for about a year now and suddenly I've had this random freezes. Freezes are momentary and when it goes back to working properly a message shows up saying "display driver stopped responding and has recovered". I've ran malwarebytes and super antispyware and there's no problem. What should my next step be?
I have a brand new Dell XPS8500 running Windows 7 Ultimate x64. When trying to play online games, I keep getting this message:Display driver AMD driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered.The browser (Chrome) freezes up, the screen goes black, the error message pops up, the browser goes completely white and I have to go into task manager and kill it.I tried getting a screen shot but could not.
My display goes black Frequently for about 10 seconds, then get an error that my "Display stopped responding but has recovered." is there something wrong with my video card or is it my notebook? I thought my notebook may be overheating for the exhaust was hot so I bought a chilling mat with 2 fans but getting the same problem? I did blow it out with canned air & Of Course I'm 3 mos. over the warranty & stupidly, didn't get the extended warranty...
I've been having problems with artifacts (sprinkled dots and rainbow-ish shapes) popping up on my screen whenever I put my laptop to any more demanding use, like games, videos, hi-res images, etc. This leads to the system hanging up, repeated "Driver stopped responding and recovered errors", and eventually a blue screen. If I shutdown my computer and restart it, it tends to go away for a few days before returning to normal. I ran the Furmark stress test and it immediately caused the above symptoms and I had to stop it. I'm aware that this kind of problem may have several possible causes. I'm hoping maybe someone with a similar system (see my system specs) has overcome this.Edit: Wow, great timing. I was just trying to play Osmos just now and I got an error message I never noticed before. The game froze up and the "driver stopped responding" message came up but this time I got an Nvidia Open GL error that said "The NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display driver and is unable to continue. The application must close. [URL]
So I ran the test earlier today , and everything was fine. Max temperature after 11 minutes running the test was as far as I can remember not more than 85 it stayed stable with only 1 degree difference from time to time till I stopped the test. I am with Palit Gtx570 Sonic Platinium video card. So I didn't take a screen because I thought everything was fine. Seven hours later I ran the test again and then suddenly here is what happened :
Actually I bought my computer recently. I am using Windows 7 64bit. I had that problem and here is what I have done:
1.Reinstalling drivers from different sources - Palit, Nvidia and disc drivers. Tried older versions. 2. Reinstalling Windows - putting first the drivers of the video and then the drivers of other devices with the purpose to try to detect if there is a driver conflict. 3. Talked with the distributor which sold me that video card and they changed it with a brand new one. The same model. The first video card had that TDR problem quite often. This one not that often. The first one was able to force the TDR crash in two ways -no need of those test. I installed a game called - World of Warcraft and I tested it there was where i experienced TDRs for first time. After that I found out that I can force them to happen also when I am testing the " Windows experience index" - usually happens on the 3D Geometry and some other 3D tests. Somewhere in the internet I read that it was due to a low core voltage so here comes the : 4. I increased the core voltage a little bit to 1038 with afterburner program. But this didn't help at all. - this is considered for the first video card. Now I am kinda desperate. It cannot be from the vide card to be malfunctioning because it was changed with new one. It is not the driver too... As you can see the first time it passed the test of the FurMark with no reclamations second time it failed. Sometimes it passed windows experience index without a problem , other times it is experiencing TDRs. P.S. Here are the parts I am using - everything is brand new recently bought: i7-2600 3.4 Ghz ; Asrock extreme4 gen3; Palit GTX570 Sonic Platinium; Corsair Vengeance 2x4gb dual channeled 1600 ( CL:9); Seasonic 850W Bronze; Box - Thermaltake RX-I
