Guest acesarge Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 When ever I try to play a mission or free mode in LA mod my computer crashes. The screen turns black, flashes parts of my desktop and stops responding. Sometimes I see an error message that says "ATI drivers have stopped responding" when this happens. I have already tried updating to the latest drivers, no luck. My video card in an ATI HD 5770 and I am using windows 7 64 bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 Hmm, well for what its worth I am pretty sure the problem is the video card. Now I havent heard any one else on the forums using any 5000 series ATI cards, so it may be that these cards are simply to new. I know on my 4890 the 10.1 drivers were buggy with EM4. 10.3 drivers work fine though. My guess is EM4 doesnt like the drivers. Id play around with different driver versions and see what you come up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try playing the game with those disabled (don't leave your internet connection open when you disable your anti-virus and/or firewall!!!).

The fire wall wouldn't effect it since I am only playing single player and I have tired it on a different computer with the same video card and it crashed.

Stan Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Try the newer drivers http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx?p=win7/windows-7-64bitMight sound silly but often, in the first months the drivers of new cards are just crapBut in most cases going black shouldn't be due to games, but to a hardware or software defect or incompatibilityBoth rigs where the same?
