Ok Im trying to play a pc game called spellforce 2. Well I was having problems gettin it to work so my bro suggested updating my drivers. Well I did that and now the game is working but it keeps freezing up on me and the error message Im getting says "VPU recover has reset your graphics accelerator as it was no longer responding to graphics driver commands." The error message is labled ATI VPU Recovery. Anybody have any idea whats going wrong??

Right click on your desktop, an Click Properties, Settings, Advanced, Troubleshoot, and set Hardware acceleration to None, click Apply and OK. See if that will solve the problem.
