So a while ago, I was playing bf4 on my sapphire dual-x hd 7950, than suddenly my pc just powers off, and automaticly turns on again.

 

then it keeps bsoding to "thread stuck in device driver"

 

when i uninstall the drivers from ddu, it works fine and doesn't crash when I log in my pc.

 

but right when I go and install drivers (16.11.5), it blue screen's of death again.

 

I'm currently using my other gpu, an r7 370 and it works fine, but the hd 7950 doesnt.

 

The gpu can launch up Rocket league and play it, (at extremely low fps tho) without the drivers, could this mean its not fully on the gpu side? (even though i already tried with another psu, a evga 500w instead of my main evga 500B.)

 

Also, whats the difference between installing gpu drivers in safemode and without safemode, could this possibly fix the issue?

 

And last of all, should I try using the EVGA 500w psu just for my gpu, and my main evga 500B psu supplying power to all other components?

Sounds like a problem with the driver and not the GPU.

 

Don't try the double PSU thing lol, just use the 500B.

 

Install the version before latest and see if you still get errors.

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

I've tried 16.11.5, 16.9.2, 16.11.4 and 16.11.2, but it still gives a BSOD, I even tried with another pc, and same error.
