New "Used" 6850 Display driver stopped responding
So I got my 6850 in today and installed it along with 12.11 drivers, but when I tried to play Battlefield 3, after a few minutes it quit on me and gave me the "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" error. I joined another game and this time it was running at about 10 frames per second.
What should I try?
Do I have a defective 6850?
Also, I should note that this originally happened in my brother's computer. I am now trying it in mine with no luck.

Put the fan to 100% and check the temps while playing.

It's at 775Mhz core stock if that's what you mean. But it's not running nearly as fast as it should be.

Running Windows 8?
I upgraded from 7 to 8 and randomly get a display driver has stopped working (when on the desktop not in game). Doesn't happen often and it recovers, but locks the PC up for 2-3 seconds. Never happened with Win 7.
No idea what you get 10FPS though.
Try older drivers?

What card did you come from? Could be driver issues causing your problems.

I would put 12.8 or older to see if that fixes.

I have a 6850 and I have seen the same issue once or twice (but NEVER gaming). I have 3 monitors on the card and it has 'recovered from failure' when opening a web pages. After I plugged in my Dell 30" (display port) the Catalyst application will not launch at all.
I have updated, but no change.
My Virtu Control panel also fails at start up. If I take the time reinstall it, it works for a few days then at boot it comes up with error.
The drivers are crap. Good luck! Will be watching for solutions!

My experience is that something is messed up with the Windows driver model or the AMD drivers. I had a 5450 that got the same error and then a 5770 that had this happen a lot. For some reason, this doesn't happen on my current GTX 570. I doubt it is bad hardware or heat issues but rather is a comparability issue. There are some Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) tweaks that can alleviate this error somewhat.
