Did you completely remove all nVidia graphics drivers, and restart prior to installing the ATI graphics drivers?

yes

this problem existed before. i thought it was nvidia. so i thought id get a new card, and try Ati for a change and see. but the problem still exists

could it be my motherboard?

I got the 5770 as well but I get a freeze and a sound loop when I play games, I'm still working on the issue myself, hopefully I'll find the answer and get back to you.

nvlddmkm error is specific to nVidia. ATI's error message would be something like:
"atikmdag stopped responding and has recovered."

It doesn't even give me an Error anymore it simply says my driver has stopped and has recovered, or it freezes whatever game I'm in and I'm forced to restart my pc. I think it's either some complicated psu problem or my bios is corrupted, I'm sure the real answer is either extremely minute and illusive or plain and I'm just not getting the message.
