Hi guys
I am battleing with this bug for some time now and so far no luck what could cause it. The following is the problem.
I play some game, doesn't matter which one, then suddenly after well, lets say 10-15 minutes the game freezes, at least the picture, then it takes about two seconds and then the screen gets distorted, weired colors and stuff like little mosaic, then the screen gets black and then the game picture is there again perfectly as before and I can game on till it happens again.
So far I have no clue what this is I can only say what it is not.
It isn't the heat as far as I can tell as fangui says something around 80 for the GFX and something low like 60 for CPU. I also disabled all no critical programs but I left the Norten Antivirus and that stuff running, no effect, still there.
I am kind of at the end of the road here but I guess it has something to do with the Omega drivers but that is just a feeling.
Hopefully someone can help here cause I ran out of options
Thanks

UPDATE:
Ok guys I finally found out what is causing this but not how to solve it. It seems that when the screen locks up VPU Recover kicks in. That is what I experience after the lockup the strange screen and stuff.
So it seems the game locks up and the VPU recover "recovers" it so I can play on.
So now how to solve this crap.
Btw always when I exit the game my screen res is turnt down to the game res. Don't know if that has something to do with it
Please help me guys as this really sucks. May this be an effect of a bad Radeon card or something?
