I keep getting this error. I've tried every fix I could find on the internet, multiple times, over and over and nothing worked. So I formatted fresh, everything was fine, now a couple days later I'm getting this error again. I know a lot you can understand how incredibly annoying this is. Something is breaking it, I have no idea what and even after completely uninstalling, deleting everything, and cleaning with DDU, etc, then reinstalling. Doing all of this over and over again, it doesn't fix the issue. I have a fresh image I can just restore to, but all that is going to do is buy me a couple days until it breaks again as I've already done that even a few times now.

Any ideas? I already decided to move to Nvidia on my next upgrade this is definitely enough of an issue to push me over the edge, but I'm leaving this summer for work and I'm not doing a rebuild until I get back, so in the meantime I just need this to work.

Current build specs are;

3770k, 280x, p8z77m-pro, 16GB, win7x64 sp1 with no other updates, latest stable omega drivers

Any ideas?
 
Can you try reinstalling all of the .NET framework? I believe that's what CCC runs on.
 
Do you have any software installed that makes changes to video card settings or driver settings? Flux, Afterburner, Trix? Do you have RealTemp or CoreTemp installed?

Does it happen right after bootup or randomly while using your PC? It has to be a conflict with something, but I haven't personally experienced this. Have you tried disabling all of the applications that load on startup to see if that helps?
