Display driver stopped to respond and recover error

When on the computer, the screen is blacked out for a few seconds.  When he returned, there was the message that the display driver has stopped working and recovered.  It happened three times in a row.  The computer is not hot or overheated and I have no windows to open.

Hi Marissa,

1. What is the number of brand and model of your computer?

2 did you recent hardware or changes to the software of the system?

I suggest that you uninstall and reinstall the video card.

Step 1: To do this, follow these steps.

a. click Start and type devmgmt.msc in the start search box and press enter.

b. expand display adapter.

c. right-click on your video card, select Uninstall.

d. restart the computer. Windows should now reinstall the video drivers.

Step 2:

Update the computer with the latest graphic drivers. Log in the computer or the Web site of the manufacturer of the device to do.

Updated a hardware driver that is not working properly

Hope this information is useful.

    ATI Radeon HD 6770 m

    Hello

    I thought I had solved this problem before, but it persists today.

    A while back my pc would freeze and then recover, with pop - up saying dialogue

    "display driver has stopped working and recovered."

    Now, it does not recover, it remains just frozen.

    This does not happen when I come back to the graphics card Mobile Intel.

    It freezes when I use AMD ATI Radeon.

    My PC freezes when I lead average graph low load.

    (I watch YouTube videos via the media player and internet browsing)

    This means that I'm not hardcore gaming, however when I'm hardcore gaming my pc does NOT freeze.

    I have the latest software/driver graphic HP provides me with.

    I can't install ATI, because everything I download from there, says it's not compatible with my device.

    I also think that sometimes my pc is overheating.

    I have HP CoolSense set for maximum cooling, however I think that this is not enough. (blue screen of death)

    I tried SpeedFan software of third party temperature sensor that automatically adjusts the fan speed.

    However, I don't think that the software is compatible with my motherboard because it can read my fan RPM speed.

    I think it's the GPU causing overheating because the CPU is 50 degrees celcius at an acceptable (?).

    This is a new laptop, so there is no collection of dust or debris in the exhaust gas.

    I would like to update my graphics driver, there were no update driver since the: 2011-05-06

    Also, I would like a method to increase the speed of the fan, preferably both GPU and CPU

    to lower the temperature and components

    Even as I write this, now I got force restart the computer because it froze. (driver has stopped working)

    I realize that the graphics driver may not be the only problem

    or it may be another problem, disguised as a problem of the graphics driver.

    I am willing and pledged to use all means, (with the exception of a full recovery of my pc)

    to fix my current misadventures with my laptop.

    Kind regards

    John

    You must first update the latest version of the BIOS of your laptop.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/WC/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-96635-1&CC=US&DLC=en&LC=en&os=4063&Product=5085756&sw_lang=

    Once you update to the latest version of the BIOS download and install the following softpaq and this should solve the problem:

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?cc=us&LC=en&DLC=en&softwareitem=ob-95106-1

    This should solve the problem.

  • Error "display driver stopped responding and has recovered" seems to have led to big problems...

    Last night, I was watching a video on my computer and it froze for a minute, and I got the error "display drivers is not responding and have now recovered." I was a little confused, but this allowed me to continue to play the video. I played it again, and 5 minutes later, I had the same thing. He continued, the case most often. Thereafter, whenever I went to play the video, he froze.

    It seems to get worse and worse - the computer has finally restarted itself and made a sort of "Scan disk", which took about 10 minutes. I was hoping this would be the cure but after it loaded up, it happened to go to a blue screen and stop again. This happens everytime I turn on the machine now, a blue screen and it will restart.

    I noticed that whenever I rebooted the computer, the image quality is degraded (i.e. the random colored lines on the screen). It was late, I therefore stop the machine and went to bed. I just started the computer this morning and opened in Mode without failure. This time he opened, however the picture quality was terrible - worse than ever. Multicolored lines all over the screen - I could hardly read the text on the screen, so I shut it down again.
    I now type on PC to my parents because my is pretty useless.
    Anyone has any idea what it could be? Or what I could do to fix it? This was happening to anyone else? This problem is related to the initial error message "display driver"?
    Thanks in advance for your answers,
    Jay.

    Of what you said is probably a problem with your graphics card. It could be the problem hardware or software problem. If it's software problem then it could solve more easily. You could start here:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/troubleshoot-monitor-and-video-card-problems

    But if it is the hardware problem, then you should contact the manufacturer of your computer or you need to replace the graphics card.

    I have OS windows 7 and my computer model compaq laptop presario CQ60... can you tell me the link from where I get this update drivers?

    Hello

    What you see is called the TDR (time display and recovery) process in action.

    This component is designed to prevent damage to the computer when the video device is nearby to crash the system. In earlier versions of windows when the display device ran out of resources throughout the system would stop responding, requiring a hard reboot to recover.

    In Windows 7, if the display device is not responding, the system will try to stop and restart the device to recover.

    More information on this feature can be found here (Advanced): http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/gg487368.aspx (written for Vista, but also applies to Windows 7)

    The most common reason for this problem is that the display device is overloaded or used beyond its capabilities.

    When this situation occurs, windows tries to recover by restarting the display device. If she can't get it back, you will see the blue screen.

    This happens more often when you play graphics intensive, but can occur with any process that uses a large amount of graphic resources, for example, when editing or creating videos.

    What you can do to avoid these problems:

    Make sure that you use the latest graphics device driver.

    Manage your work time with programs that are graphic-intensive, quit other programs that might also use a large amount of resources.

  • Pavilion 6154ea: Radeon display error - display driver stopped responding and has recovered

    Received a UN expected error in the web search, actully screen off for a few seconds before receiving an error on the display driver stopped responding and recovery.

    Took a glance in the peripheral section where the 2nd adapter displays without any sign of error.

    After recently installing a new SDS moving from the HARD drive, reinstall windows 7 etc via the updates and the order to make recovery disc the laptop because I used receive a blue screen error frequently, so that the display driver does not not error occasionally when using the design programs.  Therefore assumed, needed a new HDD/SSD and factory restore.

    -Laptop computer has been cleaned withdrawal because keyboard, frame etc. with solvents as a cleaner. Therefore cannot be over heating the fan works hard to due and SSD.

    -Power supply has been connected to the time

    N ' was not overclocked as it is when using disk HARD aswell

    It wasn't until today where it happened again, without the blue screen though. So decided I would look at him and realized it is a common problem with the ATI drivers, when I assumed it was a HARD drive failure all along.

    This time the screen turned off for a few seconds, more then previously which is a little disturbing. Was only using a search engine with no program in the background. Infact havn't got round to reinstall files and software so the laptop is very clean and basic and works so don't know why I feel this fast.

    Hi @skibbles,

    Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

    I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question in the subject of your HP Pavilion dv7-6154ea Entertainment Notebook and problems with the display driver stopped responding. I recommend to restore the default BIOS settings. You could restore the BIOS with this document by selecting the reload the default BIOS settings. This resets the hardware parameters and contributed to others.

    Here is a link to test the material if you need it. It checks the pieces to see if something is a failure.

  • Display driver stopped responding and has recovered

    Product: HP Pavilion dv7-6015tx Entertainment Notebook PC

    OS: Windows 7 32-bit

    Status: Clean installed Windows 7 Ultimate 32 - bit Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

    Hello

    I had several cases where the computer seems 'lag '.

    then, after a few flickers on my screen, Windows would give the error:

    "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered."

    There are still effects after this message.

    When dragging windows, scrolling top-down graphics etc. continue to Flash.

    This isn't all in hardcore, the GPU was not operating at high temperatures.

    Interestingly, I don't have this problem when I'm in the middle of hardcore games.

    The CPU was not under heavy load, the CPU was not working at high temperatures either.

    I checked the temperature with thermal control (HWiNFO32).

    I have a lot of resources, 1223MB of RAM to spare.

    I also have lots of HARD disk space too.

    I installed the latest version of the graphics driver for my product: AMD graphics driver high definition,.

    but the problem persists.

    Help, please!

    -John

    I understand your frustration, I had the same problem, I really did, for centuries!

    Try this:

    Do not go on the AMD website for a video driver. those who do not work properly for some reason any...

    Download on the HP site specific to your HP product, for example, I have a dv7 6015tx with 32-bit windows.

    Then I'd go to: dv7-6015tx drivers

    If you still have the drivers on AMD ATI Web site, uninstall them, restart.

    Go to the HP site where you can find specific drivers for your product HP, installation, restart.

    It seems trivial, but it's IMPORTANT and most of the time to restart after uninstalling and installing.

    It worked for me, hopefully it will erase your questions, good luck.

  • Display driver stopped responding and has recovered the problem

    I got a Dell Inspiron M5040 with Windows 7 for Christmas 2011 and I started to use Windows Live Movie Maker, but whenever I get in the middle of editing a video, the screen went black for about a second and says "display driver stopped responding and recovered." The first time this error message has occurred, the laptop computer itself restarted and is went to a blue screen with the text, telling me to go into some sort of 'safe mode' (I couldn't read the text in time). I have all the latest drivers, my laptop is new, only yesterday lit.

    What can I do about it? I really want to use Movie Maker. I'm new to the Forum, so I hope someone help me. Thank you very much. Any help is appreciated.

    To open the device in Windows 7 Manager - check this link.

    Once uninstall you the graphics drivers in the Device Manager restart the computer.

    Step 2:

    Visit the manufacturer's website and download the latest drivers for the graphics card.

    Link to the manufacturer's Web site.

  • Help with error: "display driver stopped responding, but recovered."

    Hello

    First of all, my configuration is a Dell XPS 7100, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, the Videocard Visiontek AMD Radeon HD 6850 w / 9.2.0.0 driver version.

    AMD Phenom II X 6 cpu.

    My problem is that when I try to play a game (more precisely: Minecraft, SimCity, World in Conflict, AOE3) under Windows, the screen freezes for 5 seconds then go black for 1 second then back to the top with an error message saying:

    Display driver stopped responding, but recovered

    Driver AMD display driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered.

    This started only after I upgraded my video card to an AMD HD 5670 to an AMD Radeon HD 6850 Visiontek, which, at the same time, I upgraded my power supply to a 500w unit as AMD recommends. After that that I've updated all my drivers, deleted and reinstalled the driver video and which did not help. I then searched in all the forums about this problem and found that it is more than likely a problem with Windows power management. So, I followed the instructions on the site to change the registry data to help with this. This did not work, the same problem at the same time. I then contacted AMD Support and fairly well, they told me that it is either the power supply or windows power management which was the cause of the crash.

    I am at a loss now, I know not what to do. I have not tried all the third-party programs to try to manage the power. But if someone has used one that works or has any ideas for me to try please let me know.

    Thank you very much!

    I found a solution that helps!

    Please make a backup of the registry before making any changes in it.

    When editing the registry go to:

    • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    • then the MATERIAL
    • then DEVICEMAP
    • then the VIDEO
    • in the 'VIDEO' file, there is an entry with the title: MaxObjectNumber - REG_DWORD
    • This has a value at the end that looks like 0 x 00000006 (6) or 0 x 00000005 (5)
    • Double-click MaxObjectNumber, and an edit box appears
    • put 0 in the given value, and then click OK.

    This will disable Windows GPU Timeout detection and recovery. That she has stopped crashing on me.  The only problem is that windows does not save it and it resets after that rebooting so it must be changed every time you start the computer.

    If anyone knows how to save the changes to the registry, I would be very grateful for your advice.
