Problem: When Overclocking graphics card via "Asus SmartDoctor" my drivers constantly get corrupted(FPS in Games drop to unplayable levels and/or don't run at all)
*Multiple Games report that the Drivers need updating or may have been corrupted
Solution: Reinstall of graphics driver after which "Asus SmartDoctor" resets my GPU to Factory specifications and the process repeats its self. (Presumably because the drivers get temporarily removed during this process and "Asus SmartDoctor relies upon Driver Confirmation and Information Sharing between the two Programs on some basic level or more to Operate properly")
"Asus SmartDoctor" Version : (5.76)
*Graphics Driver Version: Nvidia GeForce Driver v267.59
Things Tried:
*The above stated solution
*The reverse of the above stated solution
*Rolling back drivers
*Updating drivers
*Installing/Replacing current "Asus SmartDoctor" with an Older Version
*Replacing 500W Power supply with a 750W Unit (to increase stability)
(And yes the 6-Pin power Adapter is plugged in to my GPU)
(When updating graphics drivers an Error message says "This graphics driver could not find compatible hardware")
Additional Bugs:
When graphics drivers become corrupted "Asus SmartDoctor" will instantly minimize to the system tray every time it's popped up, No changes can be made to the program until the graphics driver is reinstalled and "Asus SmartDoctor" resets the GPU overclock to Factory Specifications. (This problem persists with even a slight 5Mhz Overclock)
This problem is very annoying, as i have everything else OC'd but this problem is keeping my GPU from being Oc'd to complete my system.
Any help would be greatly appreciated Ty
