I had FM2A78M-HD+ Motherboard for 1 year and then I decided to upgrade my CPU with a A10-7870K . The problem is that although desktop applications work mostly fine when I start any graphic application any game or any graphic stress test the graphic card driver crashes constantly and recovers after some seconds. I have made a clean installation of windows 7 64 bit installing only the latest AMD drivers and the problem persists. I have done a memtest and also a burnout test for the processor with prime95 which showed no error and no increased temperature. I think it looks like some incompatibility between motherboard and A!) although it is stated that they are compatible. I am now trying to install windows 10 to see if the gives any solution to the problem Do you have any idea on how to fix this? Btw amd overdrive gives a reading for GPU temperature between 0 to 10 C. Is that correct? thanks |

What BIOS version are you using and did you uninstall the drivers using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) then install the latest drivers? -------------
