Answer 1

if drivers can't solve your video card problems its maybe because you have poor ventilation, or maybe your video card cooling system is not good enough to cool your card, try buying a better cooler if still your computer crash due to your video card then i suggest you replace your current video card.

It fairly can... in actuality, undesirable/buggy photographs card drivers are the main straightforward reason for crashes or lockups (in basic terms before undesirable drivers of others types- sound, USb units etc). in maximum situations, undesirable application is extra straightforward than hardware mess ups. That reported, a bad complicated disk might desire to effect in each sort of problems... the homestead windows paging report could be tousled, or your photograph's card application might are transforming into corrupted by using complicated tension. actually examine your complicated tension for errors, reinstall the photographs card application- ideally the present version downloaded from the producer's internet site (the two Nvidia or AMD for standalone taking part in cards).

Your integrated graphics shares memory with your system and slows the system down. If you have any money, try getting a new graphics card like a geforce 7600gs or ati radeon x1600.

Answer 4

if the updated driver doesnt do it, u could try a generic windows driver .. it might work .. I doubt though that its the driver if you updated with the proper driver from ATI as that card has been around and tested. However, could be a bad card .. so you should try it in another computer if possible
