Display driver r300 stopped responding and has recovered vista

This prompt appears in windows Vista, windows 7 and windows 8, except for windows XP. But it doesn't refer to no driver problems in windows XP, it is because Microsoft has improved Windows from time to time that ensure the stability of the systems.

Microsoft has made some promotion in windows Vista and Windows 7 in order to achieve better user experience on the condition that GPU is frequently and quickly run. The reasons and solutions of the problem can be shown in the following:. Reason 1 : when we set the display effect as aero glass and start desktop combo, the graphics will work to switch 2D and 3D displays. If not, especially with integrated graphics or lower one, the computer will fail to achieve the frequent and accelerating switch, then become disabled which leads to black screen, crash and the graphics driver stopped responding in windows 7.

PS: After turning off "show shadows under mouse pointer", "Aero peek will automatically close because it is based on the former condition. All steps are done, then the display will work well, if you have any doubt, please restart your computer. Reason 2 : If the steps above don't work, then it may well be driver problems, such as incompatible drivers, driver conflicts, incorrect installation of drivers etc.

In this case, what you need do is to clean and rearrange your system totally. It will begin to scan your PC once run, then there will be a list of outdated drivers.

Check out the graphics driver you need to update in the list and uninstall it, then restart your computer. Generally, after uninstalling all graphics drivers, you need to clean all the registration information manually before restarting the computer. But with Driver Booster, you don't need to worry about it because all these including driver files and registration information can be automatically repaired by Driver Booster, reducing the instability of systems.
