[FRD-ETR]

Hello, Ive been playing a game called Drift City and Empire of sports And it only happens on them 2 games and one of my graphics card drivers stopped responding 5 times in a row and then my computer got a Blue Screen and after it restarted after the blue screen i went to device manager on my computer and checked if the graphics card drivers were up to date and it said they were up to date. Can somene help me out please and by the way my graphics card is a ASUS EAH 3850 series. Thanks

Can you please list all specs.

Do you have 2 video cards? If so, have you tried using just one at a time to see what happens?

Did you get the latest drivers for your video card from http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx

What is the stop code on the blue screen?

hey, thanks for you reply. I'm only using one video card and i couldn't get the stop code on my blue screen because i didn't have enough time to see it because on my computer after the blue screen about 3 seconds later it restarts. but i didnt go to that website for a graphics card driver i went to this website.

http://support.asus.com/download/dow...Language=en-us <--- and where i go to download the driver for my graphics card i put ATi series then in the next box i put EAH3850

Control panel, system, advanced, startup and recovery - uncheck restart on error. That will freeze the bluescreen.

Try the latest driver from Shadow's link.

i went on that link from shadow, Then it redirected me to this other website and after it redirected me i didn't know which one to download because it brang up all different downloads

Option 2: Display driver only.

[glc]

1. Choose your OS.
2. Choose Radeon.
3. Choose HD 3850.
4. Hit "GO".
5. Choose Option 2 - Download.

Brand and model of the power supply, please? Do you have software that can monitor the temperatures of the system, including the graphics card?

I'm trying to rule out a hardware issue - poor power or overheating - before going any farther with software.

[FRD-ETR]

I read the side case of it and it says Cool Master 500 and i think the 500 is for watts thne the product number is RS-500-PCAR-A3

and i found it on this website, This is mine>> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817171031

and im not using any software to monitor my temeratures becasue i used GamersOSD from my CD and i play a few games and it was slowing down my games really badly i couldnt even back on the game with GamersOSD so i unistalled it.

Do you have Asus Smart Doctor on the CD? If so, that can monitor the video card temperature. There should be a utility on the Intel CD to monitor the system and CPU temperatures.

[FRD-ETR]

Ive got Asus Smart Doctor on my asus Cd but it doesn't tell me the temperature just shows me that i can change my fan speed but doesn't tell me nothing about the temprature of it. but i installed Intel R desktop utilities and it says this

^^^ i scrolleed down and it just shows the same thing so there all the problems

[glc]

You may have a motherboard problem if the monitor keeps tripping showing 0 volts.

You need to look at more than just the alerts. What are the temperatures? The desktop utilities will report them. Also, what are the voltages when they aren't alerting?

Run the video card fan at 100%.

Ive gone on other forums and they say that intel utilities program has problem with my motherboard so it will bring up errors. And the temperature of my motherboard is 39 degress ill tell yo u the rest once i get back on the computer

Hey Glc, Ive found a program to tell me all my tempratures Here you go. Please tell me if i need to change anything.
