• X 201 display driver crashes

  Hello world

  I have a problem with my computer laptop lenovo x 201. In the past 1-2 months, I lived when I watched youtube videos of random diversions. I have an external monitor connected to my laptop and randomly, the screen becomes black (as it is disconnected) and after some time, the image appears again and I got a message that crashed the display driver and its recovered or something like that. In any case, after that, the computer runs very slowly or freezes. Even if I try to shut down windows, is not complete the closure. The bluetooth light stays green and I hear a noise from the hard drive. In the end, I have to press the power button until it stops completely.

  Have you noticed something similar? Is there any solution for this? I have windows 7 x 64 SP1 and the latest drivers of lenovo.

  Thank you

• R400/T400/T500/W500: display driver "amdkmdap" hangs

  Summary: Lenovo ThinkPads with switchable graphics (R400, T400 and T500, W500) have problems of usability under Vista and using external monitors. More than six months, users have been plagued by frequent Windows crashes. During this time, Lenovo will not expressed complaints and reports available. The end of April 2009, Lenovo has solved a lot of problems by releasing a new official driver. However, several problems, including serious, remain as of today. Lenovo said to work actively on the issues pending (without results so far).

  Important information for users: If you experience any of the problems reported here, then Lenovo will advise you to call your local Lenovo support. Application that a case is submitted to engineering equipment. In particular, you should ask "a case CMVC to be created and degenerate". These "code words" ensures that your case be treated correctly.

  Old description of the problem

  On Vista 32 and Vista 64, the "amdkmdap" ATI display driver hangs when an external monitor was active before OR an application (game) using the DirectX technology is used. The user receives usually few messages called "Timeout detection and recovery" (TDR) of Vista:

  

  (Click here for an explanation of the message from Microsoft)

  Sometimes, amdkmdap falls down several times in a row. Then, Windows crashes with a so-called "BSOD", probably resulting in a loss of data. Generally, Windows detects "atikmpag.sys" as the driver to crash. Instant restart sometimes also independent from the front THAT TDR crashes. In such a case, no BSOD is displayed.

  The following video illustrates the phenomenon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBX9QsCmrpY

  Above this behavior has been confirmed for the following ThinkPad models: R400, T400 and T500, W500 (see below). Problem reports that symptoms are often related to play games or the laptop being docked and the external monitor connected via DVI.

  However, the presence of these two conditions is not necessary to trigger the accident to the driver:

  1. There are reports where no dock was involved and the external monitor is connected directly to the laptop VGA port.
  2. In addition, there are reports where the laptop is docked and an external monitor is connected to the DVI port.
  3. So far, there were no reports related to a monitor connected on the display Port that is available on some models. (Perhaps because this port is not used.)
  4. There are a few cases where a dock, or an external monitor was involved.
  5. Some games with reliability triggers the crash.

  Steps to reproduce

  While initially (around September 2008 - October 2008) the accident can be triggered easily, the situation is now (December 2008) more complex. Accidents happen again, although there is no clear model more. According to various reports, the crash of display driver can be triggered as follows:

  • The output of the mode standby
  • Watching a DVD.
  • Playing one of these games: Fallout 3, Bioshock, Team Fortress 2, Knights of the Old Republic.
  • Arbitrarily during the normal work. A normal working day, the problem occurs at least once.

  Other issues

  Here are several questions that seem to be related. More information can be found in other posts in this thread:

  • The laptop screen or external monitor works at a low resolution after the release of the standby mode.
  • After the connection, both monitors flicker when the screen resolution setting.
  • External monitors can be activated using Presentation Director.
  • The external monitor is empty after the connection or disconnection.
  • There are a few reports on the accidents of display driver on computers running Windows XP.
  • Switchable graphics drivers more than 2.5 GB RAM usable under Vista 32 (or 500 MB - 1 GB less than usual).

  Workarounds

  Lenovo has released a new "trick" document that provides a link to a new driver. Get it here , but be sure to read the instructions!

  (Old advice follow below the line. Think of them as obsolete.)

  ---

  Here are some tips that could make the problem happen less often. I have not tried all the. However, a. and b. have improved the situation for me; your mileage may vary.

  A. Si you don't have to use an external monitor, then move to the Intel graphics card for now.

  Otherwise:

  B. make a few changes to your system:

  • Disable Aero.
  • Create a new profile in the Manager of power supply with the following parameter: when running on AC, turn off the screen after 40 minutes. (And therefore, the laptop less frequently between standby mode.)
  • Install the latest graphics drivers.
  • Install the newest BIOS.
  • Install the latest Hotkey utility.
  • Install the latest drivers.

  C. disable switchable graphics in the BIOS setup and install the drivers from ATI modded (see zilla poster in this thread for instructions).

  The last solution (c.) has been confirmed to work reliably by several users. However, as a result, you use drivers that have not been tested by Lenovo. It is possible (but not likely) that damage the results by doing so. In addition, it may be difficult to install a Lenovo driver that solves the problems reported here. Finally, you cannot use the energy saving Intel graphics. Thus, you must use this workaround only if you know what you're doing.

  The programs can be downloaded from the following locations. Note that update system not always immediately offers you the latest versions.

  • "honestly it's totally unacceptable that lenovo has done nothing this long. I paid extra to get the ATI card, and now I can not connect my laptop to an external monitor without it crashing. I've probably will eventually sell the laptop soon because using an external monitor is extremely important to me and lenovo seems not to care about the situation of fixing. »

  Update:

  -Lenovo support informed me today (2008-10-24), they are working on the problem.

  -changed topic (was: Major problems with ports, DVI and a T400) to take into account new information.

• My laptop display driver hangs when I turn on my Skype cam

  Especially when I make a call or someone calls me on Skype, my screen goes black for a few seconds and my Skype freezes. In addition, there are times when my laptop crashes and displays a blue screen. I use the 7.24.0.104 version. I've attached my DxDiag file for any consultation about my problem. Hope you guys can help me with my dilemma. Thank you

  Unfortunately, the new implementation of this forum won't let me read your dxdiag.

  However, updated of your video driver (and all other offcours), will be more likely to remedy the problem, especially if you have installed Windows 10 as a place in upgrade (you can not update unfortunately) and have kept your settings.

  In this case you will need to Windows 10 drivers, if they are available from the manufacturer of your machine, if it is not the generic device drivers will work in most cases.

• L730 - display driver satellite keep crashing

  Hi, can someone help me? I have a laptop TOshiba L730 series
  (Satellite L730 (PSK08L-07102V))

  First of all, I reinstalled Windows 7 64 bit, then I thought that there is no problem about the progress of installation until something happened. I can't install the display driver (which is Intel HD Graphics 3000 or so I thought). Whenever I have install the driver, the installer asks for a restart, then I restart, then my laptop cannot restart, and it keep crashing. Can someone help me solve this problem? Thanks before

• 5K iMac display driver problem crashing end of 2015

  I have a new end 2015 27 "5K iMac, CTO with the i7, Fusion of 3 TB drive and the M395X w / 4 GB of VRAM. I got the plug 8 GB of RAM but put 16 GB of RAM spec Apple Crucial in both. All are adapted. I have clean education installed windows 10 via bootcamp, I also used to divide the disc fusion in partitions of equal size. I had some problems initially with Bluetooth for the magic mouse and display and had to manually install the drivers for the two. In the case of Bluetooth several times. By a very large extent, it was worth the most I got with an installation of bootcamp since the first version as issued. I don't know if it's windows or apple it was a mess of God awful things installed partially or not at all.

  In any case, I got things set to the point where the system seemed stable and decided to start running some games through steam. This is when I started to have a great many problems with the system. More specifically, when I play games on steam I frequently either crash to the desktop or system chokes and throws me back to the default windows display drivers. I say this because I can't see the error appearing frequently in the observer of events just before these accidents is "Display driver amdkmdap stopped responding and has successfully recovered." Usually, I have two error messages in a line in the newspaper timed just before the accident happens so I am sure that the pilot does not successfully and two kicks me back to the default windows display driver and the locking system until I quit the game via the Task Manager or comes crashing down on the desk. According to the event viewer, I had 20 warning messages (event ID 4101) in the last nine days (yes I play a lot for a 50 year old man).

  Seriously, what gives apple? I drop to $3K on a machine and I can't even enjoy a game that this card should be more capable of running at a decent resolution (Fallout 4) because the drivers suck. AMD released the bootcamp drivers on September 21 last year. They claim they have the latest drivers available (and their latest stable version for systems non-bootcamp is December 15 last year, after having released only 12 days ago the beta drivers) for bootcamp, but you guys are sitting on them because you certify drivers. So, yet again, what gives? Can we get the drivers, we need to use the systems we paid a premium for it please?

  If you want to try non-Apple certified drivers, you can test with WHQL drivers, or try and BCA allows you to download the latest available package and check the version of the drivers available vs installed. AMD GPU are bad when they are in the Mac running Windows. This does not happen on OS X side.

  There are number of threads about the drivers for the AMD GPU and a lot of experimentation within the CSA for Windows drivers.

• HP Envy 15 Display Driver crashing into some games

  Hello

  Since I bought the HP Envy 15, I had problems with the AMD display driver. First of all, I went to fixed graphics in the bios. When I use the AMD GPU, I have random crashes while playing a few games (only tested Minecraft that runs on Java). I have the latest version 64 bit java, so this isn't the cause of this problem. Accidents appear at random times with no errors except the bubble "AMD display driver crashed and successfully recovered" to appear at the bottom right. When the driver crashes, I have to restart all programs that use the GPU because they do not work properly unless I have restart them. I have already discussed this problem with the HP Instant Support (Chat ID: 39947114) and I was told that the R & D of HP will be notified to soon release an update of the driver. I don't know if the R & D was notified or if the driver is going to get an update. If all goes well, there is a solution to this problem.

• My AMD display driver keeps crashing in some videos

  My AMD display driver keeps crashing and stop any use of the computer for 5 to 10 minutes

  Hi Dennis,

  This is not a question of MSE and not sounds more like a problem of malware.  Looks like a hardware problem or a driver problem or maybe even a problem of file system containing your OS files.  It could be the video card, the monitor or something else (even if it seems to be this driver I suggest that you update to AMD first to see if that helps - even if he says it works very well in the Device Manager and the version at AMD is the same version that you have installed).  He might even have to do with the settings or types of videos - is there something special or different about these videos and they come from the internet or from a CD/DVD which can also be part of the problem (there is not enough information to determine these things and the 5-10 minute thing is source of confusing).  In essence, it could be the driver, or there could be a conflict any affecting the driver (or corrupt files or many things).  I could walk you through some troubleshooting steps, but it is better that you get the help of people who specialize in this.  In any event it is not here.

  If please repost to http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/hardware?page=1 (but actually go first to the top and your version of Windows to reach the appropriate forum for your entry system).  Experts in the material problems and driver for your operating system will be a pleasure to help you and you will receive the best help from these forums.  They can refer you to AMD to help, but it is likely that they will be able to help you without it (and the problem may simply need new drivers from AMD or other aspects of your system) - but if they come to that point, they will send you there in time.  The accident likely causes an error message any (that's why your system to know that it is the AMD display driver).  When you re - post, please include the exact error message and everything Word to Word with all codes that can help identify the cause of the problem.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Display driver Crash on Surface Pro 3 i7 HD5000

  Used to work GREAT on my 3 Surface Photoshop Pro. Suddenly in the last week the display driver crashes with the hanging of sniffer GPU, and there is more no touchscreen support in Photoshop. What could happen? The only thing I noticed on my machine to update was Photoshop.

  Just a quick note to say that we're investigating this now (see the above Kevin post) and I have contacted Intel and MS so that we can work together to try to minimize this problem for users.  This question is very similar to what we have seen in the past on the old systems of Surface Pro 2.

  With a little luck, we will have a solution or the solution in place until the updated drivers are provided by default in the operating system, install on these devices.

  Thank you
