I should mention that the low performance occurs at the Vergen Besieged section. Is performance the worst in the game at this point?

I have attempted to overclock my CPU, but for some reason whenever I make changes in the BIOS, the boot order of my two hard drives is reversed. I am using an EVGA 790i ultra sli motherboard, which uses Phoenix BIOS.

No, it's not overclocked.

Do you have any idea what could be causing this problem? I don't really seem to have any issues in other games. Running the Metro 2033 benchmark on very high with a resolution of 1920x1080, I average 39 fps, which is right where it should be AFAIK.

High or ultra?

It's a Q9650. What kind of performance are you getting in TW2 from your 6950?

From what I've read, most people with a 2GB HD 6950 are getting about 40-50 fps with dips to 35 or 30, on ultra settings at 1920x1080 (no ubersampling). I have tested with FRAPS, and in certain places it's as high as 80, but will also drop to 20 in heavy fights. Using MSI Afterburner I've also...

Had the crash happen today. I played a game and then opened a bunch of videos to see what would happen and it crashed. What do you guys think is the limit for the number of videos that can be open before a crash will occur?

Well this is interesting. I wanted to test your assertion about the mode switching, so I ran Furmark for 60 seconds and then opened a bunch of videos. Nothing happened. I then opened some videos, ran Furmark with the videos still open, then after Furmark finished I opened even more videos and...

I never encountered it before, though. I seem to have fixed it by reinstalling flash, however. I am on the 10.11 drivers, as they are the ones that were on the CD that came with this graphics card.

I managed to force the problem to happen by opening many youtube videos at once. Again it did not go to BSOD, but only displayed the Display driver stopped working warning. I closed out of IE but did not restart. I assume this must be an error with flash player, but I don't know what it is or...

I followed all the steps you listed and installed the drivers off of the CD that came with the graphics card. Now I'll just have to wait for a few days to see if it works, as the problem would only come up once every 3 days or so. If this works I will move up to more recent drivers. The ones off...

The debugging tool pulled up a lot of text. I'm not sure how much of it is useful, but this seems to be the error identification: VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE (116) Attempt to reset the display driver and recover from timeout failed. Arguments: Arg1: fffffa8006a144e0, Optional pointer to internal TDR...

I am downloading a tool so I can view the .dmp files. My system idles at 39*C or less and it's at that temperature that I have the display driver stops. I have never tried loading something else when the display driver stops working. Thanks for your replies, btw.

No, it is not. None of the components in my system are overclocked either. Everything is at stock. I ran memtest86 and then furmark right after. Memtest86 detected no errors. I ran furmark for 30 minutes and the system was stable. The framerate was consistent. The gpu temperature rose to a peak...
