i was playing an open-world game on my gaming desktop when teh whole screen just went black. audio kept going for a second, then stuttered, then the picture came back with a little notification that teh display driver had stopped responding and recovered. this started the same evening i installed the AMD Catalyst Display Driver 13.1 update. here's the message i keep getting:
USB Audio Device Properties
Device status:
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
{Operation Failed}
The requested operation was unsuccessful.
It happens maybe twice an hour now. Before the update, zero problems for months... i don't want to start blaming the hardware if this is just a bad driver, but i also don't want to ignore a card that's on its way out. Where do i even look first?
