    AMD Display Driver stopped responding and has recovered...
    « on: January 26, 2012, 08:27:29 AM »
    So I've been having trouble sleeping, so I decided to get back on my computer and I went to the internet, was listening music and watching youtube and I noticed this popup at the bottom right came up, and said "Display Driver stopped responding and has recovered". I thought, ok this was weird. I continued on, noticing a little bit of lag when I tried to watch a video and it wasnt working properly. Well, I full screened a video and my PC ended up bluescreening on me! This has never happened before, and I had just installed a new update for AMD Vision Engine Control Center, (I think it was at like a 12.1 update).

    So, does anyone know what this means and what I should do?

    Since it just started i would roll back that update you installed...it may very well be the issue.

    Heh, I also had a bluescreen after an AMD driver update while listening to music and watching videos online a few weeks back. Never happened before to me and hasn't returned.

      Yeah, I just updated to 12.1 or whatever, but if I have to be honest, I was a bit pushy when starting programs and had alot going. I've gotten into that habit. I noticed when it restarted, it was slow as *censored* to load up, but seems to be doing fine right now so far.
