Default Displays drivers constantly failing

If I'm using the computer at all, even just browsing the web, my first GX2 core will EUE. The screen id flashing black every minute or two, and the computer is extremely slow and hanging the rest of the time.

I don't have this problem when folding on one card, but only on multiple. I've tried multiple drivers, and they all seem to do this. I'm so frustrated right now....

This also happens when everything is at stock too.

my rig did that under windows 7 when the overclock on the GX2s were not 100% stable, has not happend once since i took the clocks back to stock on the cards, have just not got around to re-OCing them yet.
And by using the PC it just speeds up the process that would happen by default, mine sometimes waited till the middle of the night to crash the display driver so, try stock and then find your max OC, again.

I still have the same problem. The drivers crash once in a while and the card folds at under clocked speeds.

Val, aren't you using 191.56 drivers? Try reverting to 191.07. They seem unstable to me when I'm gaming so I think I'm going back to 191.07.

I was, but then I tried switching back to the 185s. Still having the same problem.
My first-slot GX2 died this morning, not even being detected anymore, rma time.....

It never ends..

Dead card sucks. I've found the 191.56 driver solid for folding, good shader clocks, nothing so far gets less than 10000 ppd (haven't seen a 511 in a couple days since I installed it, must be lucky driver).

191.56 was quite the opposite for me, I got 4k PPD on my GTX 260 on a 353, haha!
Using 190.62 right now made my GPU hotter, but 8.2k PPD.
