How many 'video hardware errors' do you have logged on Win7?

Open Action Manager, expand the Maintenance category and click on 'View Reliability History'. Click on 'Weeks' to get a longer view of stats. It's the second small row down after the graph line (well, that's the category it is put in, 'Windows failures')

I've been getting a video hardware error every couple of weeks. Sometimes when this happens I don't notice anything at all (though I suspect it is when I log in just after resuming from sleep mode), and sometimes I get a 'driver has recovered' type notification. At one point it skipped a couple of months. I've had this since building the machine and I've upgraded drivers several times. I've only had one BSOD in this situation, maybe two since April 2010.

Win7-64 HP
Gigabyte ATI Radeon HD 5770 1GB

I'm just wondering whether it is something weird with my card or whether lots of people get this. I don't have any problems with gaming, at least I haven't had any for about 1.5 years so I suspect those were driver/game related.

Afraid to look on my 3570 box.

Core i5 750 has very few.

I have 3 for video driver, and a bazillion for CCC crashing.

I've seen CCC kill a laptop HDD by spamming it nonstop with writes to the event log.

None.

A shortcut would be to just write "View reli..." in the search programs and files.
