Hi, i have a problem with playing DotA :(

sometimes when i play, my pc froze up (3 from 15 games), show me a black screen and fan speed on gfx goes to max (driver shut down).

with ati 1950pro it was ok, problem shows up after upgrade to ati 4850 vapor-x

i am using Vista 64bit and catalyst 9.7

except change of gfx i was forced to upgrade only drivers (but this drivers should be ok, because friend is using them too with same OS and he has no problem - same gfx from another producer without fan speed regulation)

new games are stable, problem only with w3 :(

PS: tried reinstal OS, catalyst 9.5, 9.6 and 9.7

thx for every advice which will help me to play without crash

Disable restarting in options in CCC.

Or

Uninstall catalyst controll center, keep only drivers. Most of problems are connected to CCC only. I had something familiar and uninstalling CCC solved it.

to antimanelistu00: i dont want linux and cracking other version of windows is not the solution
to Mitsuki: i did not find setting of restarting (i remember it was there in times of ati 9600pro :)) (used advanced view), so i will try uninstaling CCC, thx for possible solution of my problem
