[SOLVED] AMD driver timeout problem ?

[veeljko23]

I have a driver timout issue in csgo only gpu is not overheating, neither i over clocked it, i have i7 870, r9 380 msi 4gb 8gb 1333mhz and 400w psu it started happening like 3 times a day and i cant fix it and it annoys me, my game freezes, than it unfreeze and i see transparent csgo (i see desktop but i have game controls) i blindly leave game alt f4 and restart and it works again...

R9 380 with a 400w PSU?
What is the exact make and model of the PSU?
I highly doubt that those two worked well together. There are almost none 400w PSUs that are somewhat good to power a 380.

The PSU needs to be replaced yesterday. It was giving you issues as expected, the 380 has recommendation of 550w. It's almost certain a bad and unreliable model since there are almost none good 400w units and if it's as old as the rest of your main system(1st gen i7) then it has 100% degraded even more from age and might have affected any other hardware, including the GPU.

Start by swapping it with a new one with recommendations found in the first post here:

Use DDU in safe mode to remove and reinstall your GPU drivers. It might fix your issue if it was not completely power related or if it's not a dying GPU.
