Hi All,
I am too an unfortunate owner of a Sapphire HD5770. I bought it about 6 months ago as part of a new PC i built and i am regretting it every time i try to play a game. I suffer from the infamous "Display driver amdkmdap stopped responding and has successfully recovered" which happens all the time when i play games. Dont play much but i used to play Call of duty MW2 and now trying to play some Starcraft 2. Its impossible to play really as it might happen every 10 minutes or even every 1 minute. Thank god i am too old to play much Once a day it even happens while browing the web but not as often as when playing. I have tried different versions of catalyst with no success and also tried reducing the graphics card clock speed to the minimum setting but again no difference.
I have also tried uninstalling the drivers with driver sweeper in safe mode as suggested in another thread and still no improvement. I have also read something on changing the FSB voltage in the BIOS but didnt find an appropriate setting and i am not sure this might be the cause. Dont know as well if my graphics card might be incompatible with my m/b as it supposedly uses pci express 2.1 and my m/b seems to only mention pci express 2.0.
Is there any chance this can be fixed? I am getting desperate and I dont have that much time to waste on this anymore. I am wondering if in the end my graphics card is just faulty. Not sure if i should buy another ATI card to be honest or just give up and go for Nvidia, in case my system just doesnt like ATI cards.
Summary of the system as follows, please let me know if more info would be useful:
Asus M4A87TD EVO
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black
4GB (2x2GB) Patriot Gamer Series DDR3 1600Mhz CL8 (PGS34G1600LLKA2)
Sapphire Technology ATI Radeon 5770 HD 1GB PCI-Express 2.1 x16 HDMI
Antec TruePower New 650W Modular PSU - 80plus Bronze
Windows 7 - 64bit
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
