Black Screen Issues - Display Driver Stopped
Dec 18, 2009
After wrestling with 'black screen' on wake up issues and 'Display driver stopped...' pop-ups, I joined the forum today and thought I'd start a thread with a copy of a reply I posted to some older threads on SevenForums related to this issue.
I think some of the black screen video driver troubles are being caused by either incompatible Power Plan settings... or poor uninstalls of older video drivers... or both. this is only a suspicion and nowhere near a certainty, which is really why I'm putting it out there.

my screen goes all black for a couple of seconds then when it returns the open tabs/sites are kinda inactive for another couple of seconds, or when i click on another window, it is highlighted but the content is of another site/tab. when this happens, there is usually a message at the bottom left of the screen that "Display driver has stopped working and recovered problems"

About 6 months ago I had several issues with my screen flickering. I thought it was just an old monitor so I replaces it. No problems, however the last 48 hours my screen goes black then sometimes it will come back on and say that my display driver crashed. I've tried looking around but i see no error reports or anything on the driver. I am using a NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS. I just uploaded the complete system specs to the website.

Lately when I run Windows Media Center and I'm watching live TV, the screen will just go black and the sound will stop. I can't get anything to come up on the monitor (goes into sleep mode), yet the hard drive is still going and power is on the pc. I have to power down the pc and reboot it. I have checked all my power settings and made sure they are good, I have the latest driver for my Nvidia graphics card.
I never had this problem and then began about a month ago and seemed to go away. Lately it is back. WMC will play live tv for about 10 minutes and then black screen. I have run malware and anti virus programs, nothing detected. Updated graphics card, pc isn't overheating. I have run out of ideas why WMC is going to a black screen. If I run just the pc, I have no problems, it's only when WMC is running.

I have a problem playing live TV using Windows Media Player. I can select different TV channels without a problem. I can hear the audio clearly. However, i can not watch anything as it displays a black screen. I originally used WinTV (version 7, with the newest updated driver and software) and works fine. For video card, I have a GTX260 with the latest version (295.73) installed. I've tried different versions of driver (259.xx to 285.xx) to no avail. When I tried setting up the TV tuner it detects the tuner as Analog Cable (tuner 1) which I assume is the WinTV tuner.

I have a dell inspiron 1501 Laptop that came with the vista platform. However, I have upgraded my computer since (and it's been years now as well) to windows 7 ultimate. For months I have been able to use my computer fine with no problems whatsoever pertaining to my Display, but of late, since about 3 months now or so, my computer has been delaying when I am watching movies and now every time I am on it, my display driver keeps on stopping and then displays this message
"DISPLAY DRIVER STOPPED AND HAS RECOVERED"
I get this message I would say almost every 2-5 minutes when I am using my computer. It is getting frustrating because it makes it harder to watch movies, and burn any kind of dvds on my computer.

I am currently having an issue with what I think is my graphics card. When I run online games the game runs for about 2 minutes, crashes and says "display driver AMD has stopped responding and has been repaired." I've googled this problem and none of the solutions that I've found have worked. I've downloaded Microsoft fix it center and it says nothing it wrong. I've tried to update the card but it says it's already updated.
-My graphics card is: AMD Radeon HD 6630
-My computer model is: Sony VIAO SE

I have a fairly fresh install of Windows 7 (< 1 month), because I found a good deal on a SSD I couldn�t pass up, and it has been running nice. I mostly use this machine for working and as such used the on-board graphics card of the motherboard (GA-880GM-UD2H), however with the great reviews on Guild Wars 2 I figured I would get back into gaming and bought a XFX Radeon HD 6870 for the occasion. As my Thermaltake TR2-450 would not be sufficient for this FX card I swapped it with a TR2-500 I had on another machine. I can play GW2 for hours at best quality and it works great � no slugginess or stuttering at all. However if I start the machine and open up a browser I can within 5 min get 2-3 errors (�Display driver amdkmdap stopped responding and has successfully recovered.�), and eventually the system will reboot. It is not limited to one browser and has also happened with Windows Live Mail.
System OS: Windows 7 Home Premium Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) II X3 440 Processor, 3000 MHz, 3 Core(s), 3 Logical Processor(s) Ram: Kingston Hyper X DDR3 16GB 1600 PSU: Thermaltake TR2-500W Graphic: XFX Radeon HD 6870 Corsair Force 3 SSD [Hard drive] (90.03 GB) -- drive 0 ST3500418AS [Hard drive] (500.11 GB) -- drive 1 ST3250620A [Hard drive] (250.06 GB) -- drive 2

Sometimes, after having been on for a long time, my screen will go black for a few seconds. It comes back a bit awkwardly, with different parts of the screen appearing separately. Once everything is back, I get a little popup saying that the display driver stopped responding, and has recovered. It's only a minor annoyance, but I'd like to know if there's any way to fix this? In my device manager, it says that I'm missing a video controller, which could be the cause of this.

but has recovered...is the message i get right after my games freeze for about 5 seconds. My games never crash when this happens, screen flashes then comes back as if nothing happened. I get this maybe 1 or 2 times every three days or so.I get this message when im gaming sometimes after my computer wakes up from sleep mode(only seen it do it once though).I have tried catalyst drivers 9.11, 9.12, and 10.1. It has been doing this ever since i got my computer a month ago. I have the newest drivers for just about everything. In the beginning i would get this issue half a dozen times a day but now its much more rare for some reason. I have had this issue in every single one of my games at least once.

Is it possible that my system showed me msg that "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" error just because I did not have SP1 installed? It is Windows 7 64bit and Asus 7770 graphics V2 DC. My video card run normaly in games, but i get that msg when im usin browser. Is it possible that msg is gone just because i installed sp1?

I RMA'd the videocard as a lot of people reccomended, and they told me there was no fault in the videocard, but sent me a new one. Before RMA'ing the card, i reinstalled Windows and still had the issue. What other part should i test? The videocard people said it couldn't be the MB, as it wouldnt display that issue.

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

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.

I just went and bought windows 7 and had it installed on my computer with some help.
It runs amazing with one major exception.
The screen will occasionally black out, then work fine again after displaying this error
"Display driver stopped responding and has recovered"
"Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 195.62 stopped responding and has successfully recovered"
It happens more frequently when I play games.
My friends think my video card is dying, but I am unsure and figured Id check on here.

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

So I just upgraded my graphics card from a radeon HD5450 to a radeon HD6670. I uninstalled old drivers and installed all the new drivers for the new card. Now I keep getting this message "Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered." The screen will get little pixle squares all over and freeze up then shoot to a black screen for a few seconds. when the system come to that error message pops up. It happens usually when i'm just surfing the web or playing solitaire. I updated my BIOS Power supply is more then adequate.
