Windows 10: Crashing and graphical issues

Hi all,So this has been an ongoing issue with my PC for the past couple years, but recently it's gotten to be a more common occurrence, so I'm hoping I can find a solution...Whenever a game or program I'm using crashes, there's a tendency for it to break what I assume is my graphics driver.The result is that my wallpaper goes completely black, all desktop icons disappear, and my task bar loses all its icons. I can still move my mouse and interact with the now invisible task bar items though, at least enough for me to restart my PC which fixes most of the issues.Now that alone would be fine a

:)

 

all games crash!

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
