AT2020 Not Working & AMD Display Driver Crash

My AMD display drivers crash every time I try to start a skype call. I have the newest beta build, what driver version should I use? (I have the r7 260x)
Another issue I have is that if I have a call that does work, my AT2020 will not have sound input for skype. It works perfectly fine with other programs and windows. (I use an AT2020 XLR and a PreSonus Audiobox USB)
I just want to record games and talk to friends. Please help!

If you use beta builds of drivers (If I understand you correctly), you should expect crashes and incompabilities. For general stabillity, the latest WHQL driver should normally be the best bet (not allways offcourse).
You can allways run a dxdiag and post it here, Winkey + r > dxdiag, save it and zip it (rightclick > send to ziped folder), and post the zip version, there might be other issues.

MSI 660 TI PE Display Driver crashes

First, here is my system.
i5-2500k Processor (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115072) (Processor is overclocked to 4.3ghz, temp on it never goes over 45-50°C though)
MSI Geforce GTX 660TI PE Video card (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127696)
Asus P8Z68-V Pro\Gen 3 Motherboard (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131790)
Corsair HX series HX650 Power Supply (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139012)
4x4GB of G.Skill Ram (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231314)
When my old MSI P67A-GD55 Motherboard bricked a month ago, instead of waiting on RMA I went ahead and got the Asus board, at the same time I went ahead and upgraded my old Asus GTX 560TI card to the MSI GTX 660TI card. Since the upgrade, I am constantly getting display driver crashes "Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered." when playing games. Guild Wars 2 and Starcraft 2 are the only ones I've had time to try, but both consistently give driver crashes after awhile (sometimes as soon as 15-20 mins, sometimes takes several hours of gameplay).
Here is the list of things I've already tried:
-First, I tried the most recent Nvidia drivers. Still crashes.
-Second, I tried running driver sweeper, removing all old drivers and reinstalling. Still crashes.
-Third, I tried disabling TDR in the Win7 registry. Still crashes.
-Fourth, I really ramped up the auto fan speeds. So far it hasn't crashed while doing this, but I can't do it for too long because the fans get so loud that it annoys me greatly.
-Fifth, I thought it might be an old Motherboard driver conflict of some sort, so I completely formated my OS hard drive and reinstalled Windows 7. Still getting crashes.
-Sixth, I used driver sweeper again and rolled back to the last official MSI drivers (the ones from October). Still getting crashes.
I really don't think the card is overheating. The most recent crash happened tonight after playing Starcraft 2 for about 20 minutes, and the temperature of the card never got over 60°C. That's why even with the extremely ramped up fan speeds I tried, I think if I used them long enough, the driver would still crash.
The power supply is the same as what I used with the 560TI and it didn't have these issues. And from my understanding, the 560TI consumed more power than the 660TI.
At this point, I'm at my wits end. The only thing else I know to try is swapping out the old 560TI in with the new motherboard or waiting for my old motherboard to come back from RMA and trying the 660TI in it. Though that means rebuilding the case, uninstalling the new mobo drivers and installing the old mobo drivers and authenticating Windows. Doing all of that is going to kill most of a day and I really only want to do that if I absolutely have to.
I've had such limited time for troubleshooting the card, that I'm regrettably past the 30day limit on RMA replacements to Newegg. So unfortunately that means I'm looking at an RMA directly to MSI and that takes about a month. Before I do that, does anyone have any advice on something to try that might be the cuplrit or can help determine the culprit? I can't find any details in the Event Viewer as to what caused the driver crash. Just that it has stopped responding and has recovered. I wish it could tell me if there was a loss of power, or anything. Power Management Mode is set to prefer maximum performance btw.
Btw, as a brief description of what happens. The screen goes black, and then comes back and the game is running very slowly. There will also usually be a popup above the taskbar saying that the driver had crashed. I keep the MSI Afterburner info window open in my second monitor and Power usage never goes over 80%, GPU Usage is usually around 95-99%. Core Clock and Memory clock drop to about 324mhz (which is what it idles at) temporarily during the crash. GPU Usage of course dips to very low levels while the driver is crashing, as well.
Oh and in an added twist, I've run Kombuster several times. Burn-in test DirectX 11 1920x1600 8xMSAA as long as five hours, and the display driver has never crashed. I'll probably turn it on, and disable the computer's sleep and display off tonight and let it run for about 8-9 hours and see what happens. That's one thing that throws me off, if it's a hardware defect, wouldn't Kombuster cause it to crash?
edit-Here is a screenshot of the Afterburner monitor during a crash while playing Starcraft 2. The huge dip in the bars that I have the cursor over is when the crash occured.

Well with the Power% limited to 75%, I just had another crash in Starcraft 2. Temp was only at 56°C just before the crash.
Here is a shot of the Afterburner Hardware Monitor when it crashed:
Unfortunately I do not have another PC to test the card in. And I don't know anyone around here with a system that the card could work in.
If I swapped out the 660TI with my old 560TI and I do not get any crashes, wouldn't that indicate it's the 660TI's fault and I'd need to RMA since the 560TI is a more power hungry card?

Intel display driver crashes on S1 Yoga running 64-bit Windows 8.1

Whenever my machine comes out of suspend mode, the display driver crashes. It goes to a black screen for about 8 seconds then I get the error "display driver intel hd graphics drivers for windows 8 (r) stopped responding and has successfully recovered". The black screen is consistent but the error is occasional. I also got the error when performing a right click on the desktop to enter the display properties. I am running the most current driver for my graphics card and the most current BIOS version. After researching this problem online it appears that it is a known issue but the fixes I saw posted all included using an older driver from another manufacturer. Is there a better fix from Lenovo out there?

Hi @curtisa, @guigs2 and @rmcguigan,
Thanks for your responses.
I managed to get eWallet working correctly for 24 hours approx. by uninstalling Firefox, running CCleaner, deleting all Mozilla references on my system drive, scanned for virus using Win Defender, SuperAntiSpyware, and SpyHunter, (nothing reported) then again downloading and installing the current version of FF to "Program Files (x86)".
However next morning, it had failed again.
I checked the Windows event log and it shows an error with a Source of .NET Runtime. The application is eWallet.exe, Framework Version V4.0.30319, Exception Info SystemAccessViolationException.
I'm not sure what that all means, and would welcome any further suggestions.
Cheers
Steve

Satellite L750D-15E AMD Display driver

Hey :)
I have the Satellite L750D-15E laptop (amd a6-3400m quad core APU with Radeon HD 6520G) with win7 64bit.
The latest update for AMD display driver for my comupter is from 2012:
http://www.toshiba.co.il/innovation/jsp/supportMyProduct.do?LNG=29&service=IL#tab3;
There are a lot more updated drivers and there are a lot of new video games that require updated drivers.
Is there a way to get more updated drivers?
When I try to use the AMD driver auto detect (When trying to download the driver that was detected) it shows me an error that the version of my graphics adapter isn't supported.
I also updated the bios to version 2.10 to see if maybe that solves the problem but it didn't.
my Video BIOS Date is 05/10/11.
Please help,
Lee.

Hi
Display driver for mobile units is pretty limited and notebook manufacturers don't offer some updates very often. Problem is that hardware performance, especially graphic card performance, must be under control and it is controlled by display driver.
With new driver graphic card will offer more performance but with more performance GPU will produce much more heat and it can be very dangerous for al mobile machines.
Cooling system for notebooks is optimized for certain hardware platform and if hardware cannot be cooled down properly result can be either overheating or hardware damage. Thats the reason why you cannot install these non supported drivers. Toshiba don't want to be responsible if you use some third part driver and later come to service with damaged graphic card.
I know it is a bit annoying and everyone of us want to have good machine with high performance but thats the problem with notebooks in general.
To be honest these L models with AMD platform are good notebooks but not some gaming machines so I don't think you can do much about that.
Of course BIOS update has nothing to do with all this.

AMD Display Driver Stopped Responding Pop Up After Monitor Goes Black

HP Pavilion Elite HPE 400z PC
[Edited for Personal Information]
AMD Athlon X4 635 quad-core (2.9GHz)
512MB ATI RadeonHD5450
Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit
Purchased 1/2011. Early on and continually getting worse to the point this happens several times a day.
Screen goes black instantly. Within seconds it boots back up and pop up says AMD Display Driver Stopped Responding. This happens under all conditions, every day, usually when on the internet. I tried to download an updated driver on your site and it detected my computer and printer but when I went to download updated driver software it said it did not detect my computer.
Please give me exact steps to take. Thank You!!

The "portable document format" icon is a Word 2010 icon, so selecting Adobe Reader as action does not work to display the PDF.

In the Applications tab -- Content Type -- the "portable document format" icon is a Word 2010 icon (not Adobe), so selecting Adobe Reader or preview in Firefox as action does not work to display the PDF. I can see this Applications difference because my other Firefox laptop has the Adobe icon, and I can view PDFs. Essentially, a PDF is coming in as a Word document -- and the computer tries to open it up as a Word file.
How do I get the correct PDF icon in the Applications list -- the same way it displays (and works) on my other laptop.

Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 10.1.7 ?
I think you need to add this to the list of applications and the action to take on the type of content. This can also be managed in the about:permissions page. [[Permissions Manager - Give certain websites the ability to store passwords, set cookies and more]]

Form load rules are not working on display and edit forms

Hi
I have customized SharePoint 2013 list form using InfoPath 2013. I want to hide certain fields based on user group. I created rules on form load for that. These rules are working fine on New Form but are not working on display and edit form.
What can I do?

It could be because the value might have not changed ie, you might be checking for a particular value, the values might have got overwritten when the new form is saved, see if that value is blank or overwritten in display and edit forms.
I would first check the form load rules and check those values again in Display form and edit form, if the values are not getting cleared/overwritten.
It would be better if you could upload the screenprint.
Hope this helps!

When I have firefox open, it crashes at the same time as my display driver crashes (Crash signature: kernelbase.dll@0xb9bc)

The screen turns black (audio remains normal if I'm playing music) and then flickers back on. I get a message that says "Nvidia display driver stopped responding and has recovered successfully." This happened before and Firefox wouldn't always crash, but the last few days it happens several times a day and Firefox always crashes at the same time as the display driver.

No, they aren't working on the same files. All 3 employees are working on different files.
They are all on Dell Optiplex GX745 with 4 Gb of RAM.
The crashes are at different times, not all 3 crashing at the same time. Therefore, I don't believe network is the cause of the issues. Also, it didn't crash on CS5, but now it does on CS6.
What I'm looking for are possible settings within Illustrator CS6 that I can tweak to make it a more stable program.
Thanks

870A-G54 - Possible overheating caused by too much ram? Display driver crashes

Greetings, I have a 870A-G54. I've had multiple issues with several video cards prompting me with a "display driver has stopped responding and has recovered" error. Each video card having it's own unique fix. I've come to the conclusion that it's another piece of hardware in my system that is the root of the problem; and not the video cards. I've noticed that the CPU during "the crash" hits about 60c; usually when playing video games. After a reboot, I can play games for a couple more hours before getting the error again. I'm running 16gb of ram on Windows 7 ultimate. Yesterday I decided to remove 8gb of ram to see if the CPU got "hot" again (only leaving the sticks in bay 3 and 4 in). I had a 4 hour session of gaming and it didn't crash. Note, I have the latest bios installed and a Power Supply that shouldn't have issues powering the whole thing; 850w gold rated PSU. I'm currently running a 6950 video card, and all of the settings are stock; no over clocking in any way. I have a hardware monitor installed that shows with my 16gb of ram that my cpu idles at 41-43c. During a intense gaming session going up to 60c. Yesterday after removing the other 8gb (two sticks of 4gb), it never went above 50c. My CPU is well ventilated. I've contemplated water cooling the CPU if that would resolve the issue. But I'd hate to fork over more money to an already expensive system if I don't have to. I've also wondered if it's just a bad ram stick, or bad ram bay on the motherboard. :\
Any suggestions here would be appreciated! Thanks!

So, I conducted several tests over the last couple of days. Now, I understand that mismatching ram could (and probably is) potentially causing the overheat problem. But... I kind of started looking at fundamentals. I have to sets for DDR3. One pair is Patriot sector 5 ram, the other is a set of Dominator ram. Now, I've noticed that I've seem to always have this driver crash issue. But I had always thought it was the video card. Only until recently I started seeing/noticing that the cpu was getting very hot when the driver would crash. On Wednesday I removed the ram in slots 1 and 2 (the Dominator ram), and only ran with the ram in 3 and 4 (Patriot). It ran fine all night. I then ran some heat tests, with the same ram in bays 1 and 2. When the Patriot ram was in those two slots, it ran cooler. When the Dominator was in, it ran hotter. The Dominator's builtin heat-sinks pretty much rest right next the CPU's heatsink (and restrict air flow). It re-arranged the ram so the Dominators are in 3 and 4. And the Sector 5 are in 1 and 2. It worked all night yesterday, CPU didn't get any hotter that 48c while having multiple programs running. Looking at it now, the design of this MB is pretty bad, there should be a little more space between the CPU and the ram. In any case, I will follow up if it continues to crash due to heating issues. I know it's probably cheaper to get new ram, but I'm playing with the idea of just getting a better heat-sink for the CPU (WATER COOLED)!

My phone is not working because of a crash on my computer while a blackberry update

Hi today i was on my laptop updating my phone and then my laptop battery crashed and then i tryed to open my phone and it did not work i removed my batterie and i put it back in but it did not work more so now im mad my phone is a blackberry curve 9360

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
I'm trying to parse through your post...lacking punctuation makes that a bit difficult. But I think I understand your situation. However, you failed to state exactly the method of update you were doing...it can be from the update website, from the Desktop Software without the OS package installed to your PC, or the Desktop Software with the OS package installed to your PC. Hopefully I will guess correctly in providing you with things that might help.
You should probably start with these two KBs:
KB10144 How to force the detection of the BlackBerry smartphone using Application Loader
KB27956 How to recover a BlackBerry smartphone from any state
Good luck and let us know!

Display Driver crashes in Windows 8.1 on late 2013 macbook

I have been able to install Windows 8.1 on my new 15 inch MacBook with Mavericks and Nvidia GPU. I installed windows along with the bootcamp drivers. The issue I am having now is that the machine complains that "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered".
This is happening every 30 seconds at its worst. When I have tried installing windows 8.1 earlier, rebooting resulted in windows booting to a black screen.
I have tried running windows updates but the same thing happens and after restarting the machine, windows just boots to a black screen. I have tried installing windows but not running any updates and the same thing happens. This is now my 3rd attempt in which I tried installing nvidia drivers direct from the nvidia website (331.65-notebook-win8-win7-64bit-international-whql) but the installer complains about incompatible hardware.
Is there any way to get windows to behave?
For refrence, I installed windows the following way:
Creating an iso from my windows 8.1 dvd on a windows machine.
Use bootcamp assist to create a bootable usb from the iso, allowing it to download boot camp drivers.
Splitting the hardrive into 2 partitions inside bootcamp assist.
After the computer reboots to install windows, I then rebooted back into OSx and went into disk utility. I reformatted the bootcamp partition. I also added 2 more partitions that I later plan to put linux on.
Restarted the notebook, booting from the bootable usb. Followed the windows 8.1 install prompts including formatting the bootcamp partition. Machine rebooted many times.
Allow the installer to install bootcamp drivers.
Restart and windows 8.1 was installed.

The Solution
The section about installing nvidia drivers worked flawlessly!
Download the latest nvidia driver.
Unpack/run it on your local harddrive(note where!), it won't install at this point"You need a modified .inf file to make the installer work"
Go to: www.laptopvideo2go.com - Windows 8 Nvidia 314.22 WHQL .inf File
Locate the inf file for the driver version you downloaded in step 1. Save the inf file locally
"Copy the downloaded .inf file into the Nvidia installer folders at: C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\314.22*\Win8_WinVista_Win7_64\International\Display.Dri ver (when asked if you want to replace the file say yes)." *note that driver version may differ
Run C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\314.22*\Win8_WinVista_Win7_64\International\setup.exe
You are probably done by now!
If problems still occur, go to Device Manager
Locate Monitors -> Generic PnP Monitor
right click and choose disable
My Problem
My screen went black on startup. I think some kind om Windows 8 update, was the cause.
Anyhow, uninstalling the nvidia drivers in safe mode* "solved" the black screen problem.
*Getting into safe mode was the most terrible part since shift + F8 wouldn't work for me at all(were I too slow?).

PS CS4 working before hard drive crash

I started with PS5 then PS7 then CS4.
I went from XP to Windows7.
Been working with CS4 on Windows 7 for 10 months.
Then my Hard drive crashed. Got a new hard drive installed.
I copied over the program files from the original XP backup (which is what I did when I migrated to Windows 7)
I COULD get PS5 to work but now I'm receiving the 'program can't start because PCDLIB32.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.'
I reinstalled PS7 but receive 'NEFLibrary3PS.dll missing' when I start it up. Then another error message 'could not initialize PS because the scratch disks are full' (worked fine before the crash)
CS4 is giving me the following:
This product has encountered a problem which requires that you restart your computer before it can be launched (I did)
If you continue to see thismessage after restarting your computer, please contact either your IT administrator or Adobe technical support for help, and mention error code 6
I was cruising along just fine before the failure and it's been 10 days to get to this point.
What are my options now?
G

You can get the CS4 installer here.
http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
Please follow the download instructions carefully or the download link won't work.
You could then run it and hope it detects your install. If it does, it should give you an option to repair it instead of reinstall.
Also if you registered your software with Adobe, your serial number can be found in your Adobe account under "my products."

Firefox can't recover after my display driver crashes

My display driver is garbage, it crashes multiple times a day. It always has (I got this laptop second-hand).
I'm used to it. I've tried reinstalling drivers, editing the registry, reinstalling windows, switching browsers, etc etc etc
It's fine, I guess I can live with it crashing throughout the day, it flicks back on in a second or two.
HOWEVER, I can not live with it shutting down my browser EVERY TIME. Chrome and IE can recover from this, but apparently Firefox can't. Firefox just goes blank and won't respond- I lose all my pages. Chrome and IE will bounce back with the pages and tabs that were open when the display crapped out on me.
I guess my question is, how do I prevent this from happening?
Or can you fix firefox so that it can recover from this? I really hate using chrome. Help me out, firefox

Did you already disable hardware acceleration in Firefox?
