I've had this card for a few years and it's been really reliable, sans a few known drivers issues a while back. Namely, during the release of Bad Company 2. While I feel like I might be reliving that experience from last year, I thought I'd check out the forums and see if anyone else is having these issues. Randomly and now during any game, I'll get a verical line crash, something that resembles what an update Nintendo system might do. Is anyone have this issue? Is it a hardware or driver issue?

 

Thanks

 

Absolutely NO idea at all, seeing as your post contains so much information about your system ..

Forum search engine, keywords "system specs overview", you'll find dozens of threads with a comprehensive list of what you need to be posting up on a tech help forum if you need tech help. ALL of that list needs to be filled in too, including make/model of PSU as requested etc ..

As of 8:23 PM PST 10/5/2011. This also started happening to me. I ran several games to verify the problem existed in the broader spectrum. While reviewing the windows error log I found that on one of the occasions windows actually managed to record the entire process and created a minidump file. Now, I know of minidump files however I have no idea how to open or read or interpret them. Any techspec related to the Asus G73JH-A2 can be found here http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220704. All drivers and BIOS are up to date. Unfortuneatley I cannot attatch the minidump file as 0KB is apparently the maximum I can upload

Asus G73JH Series

 

Don't bother posting a mini-dump, they're useless for the most part, unless people here can actually decipher them ( and I ain't seen anyone here who can since I joined ) ..

Your trouble is different to the OPs, in so much as you have a laptop and so should be talking to your laptop manufacturer, and he has a self build ..

You need to be talking to ASUS about your system ..

 

@ hunt-fish - it did say ALL of the list, not just a selection of random things or half of it, but ALL of it !!!

Funny story, I've posted ALL of that information. 

I have the same Card and having the same problems since ages.

I tried to flash VGA bios, update everything, format etc.

The prob occurs when playing games

Sometimes I got the error ati drivers havestopped responding etc and can see the log in windows events, sometimes I dont see any event log but the screens turn coloured with vertical thin stripes and most of thetimes I have to hard reset it, sometimes the game comes back for another crash after a bit.

When this happens I can hear the game running in the background (if I m fighting, I come back in the game and I'm dead) but the screens is either green or blue or yellow etc.

THis happened to m 4 times today and I gave up playing... it's really stressful. I was in a guild for end game raids in WOW and had to leave because of this

If you had, then we wouldn't have asked for the information .. as it stands, no you haven't actually .. at least not in the English language I know how to read .. You've actually posted up a BIT of the first part of the list and then a massively useless MS SystemInfo dump and NOTHING of the 2nd part of the list which would give us a clue to where the state of the troubleshooting now stands.

If your attitude towards actually posting RELEVANT information for us to work on is just going to be "Jesus Christ" etc, then tell you what, take it to a qualified PC tech who can actually see the rig with his own two eyes and be able to actually physically work on it, because you know what, nobody here is a remote-viewer or medium or mind-reader who can do that work without any pertinent system information to work with ..

You either want help or you don't, but not providing any info and being flippant about it, is just going to get you exactly nowhere .. ..

Make your own thread, and same goes for you too .. see that list, fill it in, or you'll probably get no help either for the same reasons I gave him .. we need information to work with, and that list is a very good start .. without it, nobody will be able to even start to help you ( something that the OP seems not to be able to comprehend, even though it's very simple and easy to understand, and is written in very BASIC English so that anybody can use it even if they aren't native English speakers ) ..

Now, I digress. Here is the full list of my hardware per L33tG33k0z's request. 

Motherboard: MICRO-STAR INTERNATIONAL CO.,LTD 790FX-GD70(MS-7577)

CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965 30 °CDeneb 45nm Technology

RAM: Corsair Dominator 4gb (2x2gb) 240 pin ddr3 1600 (pc3 12800)

Video Card: Diamond ATI 5870

Monitor: DVI

Hard drives: Western Digital Caviar Green WD10EADS 1TB 32mb Cache Sata 3.0

Optical Drives:ATAPI iHAS124   Y ATA Device

Additional PCI cards: None

Number of fans present: 4 Case fans

Operating System : Windows 7 64 bit ultimate

Video Card Drivers in Use ( and tried ): 11.9, 11.8 and everything prior ran rather flawlessly except during the time period in which Bad Company 2 came out. Drivers were released for that game specifically.

Motherboard Drivers Used: 1.0? ( this can't be right)

Apps/Games causing issues ( and if they've been patched ): All games are up to date, started with the BF3 beta. Happened once outside of that game in Stalker. Anytime Origin is opened it causes this problem to arise. Which makes me think it's a problem specifically to do with Origin and the BF3 beta. 

All major components check 100% after thorough testing ( eg. Memory & Memtest86 ): Running a few different benchmark programs and stress tests for the video card brought no issues. It did well, still near the top of the pack in terms of cards. I didn't run any memory tests. 

System clean of viruses / spyware etc: Clean, no issues found. 

 

Edited: 10/06/2011 at 09:09 PM by AMD Game Moderator

I uhhhh.... ? So much random hatred. Anyways I figured out what it was (for me atleast). The vertical lines were being caused by a corrupted file from Windows!!! Apparently DirectX can sometimes become corrupted and was causing a major memory leakage anytime the card attempted 3-D rendering. I figured this was something to the extent of the error but I looked everywhere and found nothing on why this happend as it was very random occuring inbetween when I left for the gym and got back which was a 2 hour time span when my computer was in standby mode.

Cheers and sorry about that other guy

Edit: I think Butt_Socks and Hunt_Fish are the same person haha. I find when people do things like this to be extraordinarily funny

Asus G73JH Series

Hi I'm new here, wanted to start a new topic about this issue I'm having but this sounds somewhat similar.  For whatever reason, my PC isn't displaying a "new topics" button.  But here's what I"m experiencing.

I purchased a Powercolor Radeon 6790 in October.  Very seldomly it would just randomly crash, instantaneoulsy and just display a random color pattern, lines, or shut the moniter off all together.  It might have done it twice till this past weekend so I wasn't sweating it, just figured it was random issues, nothing to worry about.  Well this past weekend after updating to the newest drivers, it now does it all the time.  Tuesday I wiped my computer in hopes to fix it and it didn't but i found this much out:  It only does it in the browser.  At first I thought it was firefox, but it does it in IE too.  I can use my PC for hours, even game fine, but as soon as i open the browser its a ticking time bomb.  Its not a matter of "if" its a matter of "when".  Do I just have a bad card?

I hope someone can shed some light on this.  I've been pulling my hair out over it.  I'm also going through Battlefield 3 withdrawl.  Sure it'll run BF3 fine if it doesn't crashin battlelog.  I finally got fed up and just pulled the card and I'm using ATI Xpress grapics 4200 now.  Can't play BF3 with that but it won't crash in the browser!
