Running Windows 7, 32-bi,t on a Lenovo W500. Display Driver: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650. The error message (“display driver stopped responding & has recovered”) follows a system freeze, a short blackout. Then everything works fine.

Hey guys. I bought Toshiba Qosmio X500 last year and it worked perfectly. After doing recovery, my laptop comes with this error very often. How can i solve this??

Try disabling hardware acceleration in flash Right click (or ctrl click on a Mac) on the flash panorama. Choose settings 3. Make sure the hardware acelleration box is unchecked 4. Click close to save the settings. 5. Please exit full-screen mode, and refresh your page.

: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650............: ATI Radeon HD 3650! Note the difference? Installing the latter, by mistake, will certainly cause the errors you are getting.

yeah, i think it's really a Microsoft update thing. Just the other day, there was a problem with my computer shutting down bc of one of the installed updates. Bc before then, my desktop,(running on windows 7-64 bit, intel i-5 650, with a Nvidia Geforce GTS 450 graphics card and 4 TB for hd) was just fine, no problems @ all. And i've had it in this same configuration for over 4 mnths now. I really don't think its an overheat issue, bc my HAF tower gets plenty air flow. Plus, my case itself has seen hotter days, running over 80 deg F with no problems @ all. ** I'll try this fix action some ppl are talking about where you single out some of your start up programs to see if its one of them not booting correctly

Hello Crabby Office Lady,

This error can happen because of an outdated video driver, to many programs running at one time or even high CPU activity. There is a link to a KB article on the following post that gives more info on the issue and helps to fix it, see:
