Display Driver

03-26-2009, 11:05 AM #1

K I've been having this problem over and over again and it's begining to make me angry. When I try to run any game on my computer, the game will start up normal. However shortly after the game loads, my computer screen go black and comes back on, and I get a report saying that my display driver stopped working and has recovered. However after that, the game blacks out and I have to close the program and start it back up. So the program is pretty much not working. From what I can tell, it shouldn't be that my graphics card won't support it, because I'm running on a ATI HD3650. So I really don't know what is happening with it.

Is this just happening with dolphin or with other programs also? And also is your graphics cards driver updated to the latest stable version (don't bother with unstable/beta version, just a waste of time when it comes to graphics card drivers)? Oh and one last thing other than GPU what are your specs?

Ya it`s only ever happened when Dolphin is running a game. And ya my graphics driver is updated to the latest stable update. I never get beta version of that kind of stuff.

which release are you using?

2745 at the moment. However I've tried some of the other builds including the ones designed for linux and 32-bit windows.

Or a newer revision?

Ya I have tried the older versions, but it still gives me the same problem.

However I have discovered that it isn't the dolphin emulator causing the problem because when a friend and I decided to go on Runescape just for old time sake, my computer did the same thing. He figures that it is just a problem with the Catalyst Control Center.
