 * Dealing with AMD Graphics Card Errors **** . **

If you have an AMD graphics card, you may find that an error message saying :- “AMD driver has stopped responding and has recovered” pops up, and then a few minutes later your whole Windows 7 system freezes.

This problem is usually caused by the graphics card or your graphics driver. One possible problem is faulty hardware, the graphics card itself may have a fault, and if you experience this problem and updating the driver does not help, then you should try contacting the graphics card manufacturer for a replacement if it is still in warranty.

Before doing that, it is worth upgrading to the latest drivers for your graphics card. Visit the website of your graphics card manufacturer and download the latest drivers for your card, and also download a tool called:- Driver Sweeper from:- [|http://www.guru3d.com/category/driversweeper/]

 * 4) Choose to boot into **Safe Mode** using the arrow keys.
 * 5) Once in Safe Mode, run Driver Sweeper. This will remove any stray files left behind by the old driver.
