I keep getting game freezes that end up leading to BSODs after about 10-15 minutes of gameplay. I've uninstalled my drivers, removed their registry files with driver sweeper, and even went back to a far restore point. I've also tried sfc /scannow. What is wrong with my card or my drivers? I have AMD Radeon 6950 crossfired.
