Aside from my power supply problem (which may or may not be related) whenever I'm playing a game on my new PC I get some sort of display driver malfunction it seems.
In the lower right corner you can see windows says:
"Display Driver has stopped responding and has recovered"
"Display Driver atikmdag stopped responding and has successfully recovered"
This has happened in Warhammer Online and now Crysis. When it happens in Crysis it crashes the game. It doesn't crash Warhammer but will keep occuring sporadicallly until I close the game out. Also it takes 10 minutes or so to start occurring. This makes me think its heat related, however my graphics card, as you can see in the screenshot, is only running at 46C while playing. Do any of you have any ideas? This is using a single Radeon 4870
The message is driver related but my drivers are up to date so I don't think its that. I'm trying my other 4870 video card today to see if its just specific to that one.
I'm more wondering if anyone has seen this message pop up before? I'm new to vista
