    After reinstalling Windows on my machine, games would freeze, but the game obviously still runs, sound and all.

    I am currently using Driver version 15.200.1062.1004, dated 2015-08-03. Last time I installed Windows, I specifically installed a particular video card driver that does not freeze but that was some 3 years ago.

    needs help.

    thanks!

    So any driver older than the one you have will do?

    The one I currently have installed (that freezes) is the latest driver for this card. Every other version is surely "older". If I remember correctly, the driver that worked is dated early 2014 or older.

    Honestly, "which exact version" I honestly dont know and will try them all until I hit the mark.
