White screen while playing

[Mike]

I'm going f*ckn berserk on this annoying white screen I get when I'm playing. Sometimes I can play for one hour before I get it, and sometimes only 2 minutes.
My screen freezes, and after 2 seconds my screen goed completely white. Only thing I can do is log off, and on again on windows..

PLEASE, someone, HELP ME!

Sounds like your GPU is overheating. Specs and operating system please?

[Mike]

Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit
Intel Core i5 2500 @ 3.30GHz
8,00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 668MHz
2048MB ATI AMD Radeon R9 200 Series (MSI) (Right now 30 °C, and usually when gaming, it goes up to max, as high as I saw, 49 °C)
No problem with any other game so far.

No mods either?

[Mike]

Nope, I googled it, and found one more thread. Was about turning of something in catalyst control center. Did it, but didn't work..

I assume all your drivers are up to date? I am going to google this problem myself a bit to see if there are any other people who had similar problems. Because to me, it sounds like either a registry key or your driver is borked then. To which, reinstalling windows will definitely fix that. But let's go through all the steps before going there first.

[Mike]

Yep, as far as I know, they're up to date. Only problem is catalyst control center, I updated it, but it keeps saying that it's not up to date. But I don't think that's a problem with this.

So, is this a recent issue since you started playing PD2 (a problem from the start), or has it just recently popped up?

And going through people's problems online with google. It appears that I am half right, it is either an OS issue (reinstalling windows/doing a system restore fixes it) or a hardware issue.

And you are sure you have this version from AMD (and possibly the hotfix edition?)

[Mike]

I've downloaded it, but AMD Gaming Evolved keeps saying I don't have it. Will install it again.
Thanks trying to fix it!

[Mike]

Im going for the hotfix now btw.

No worries ^^;

And, if that doesn't work. See if you can get a beta version (idk how it works with the 2xx series, but the 3xx series has a beta version, that is sometimes goofy with some games, but better with others. I say that as I have a R390)

No beta version for win10 unfortunately for you:

And from the looks of you PC parts, I'd say you built it yourself?

[Mike]

Well, you can say that! I bought this pc, and upgraded it with some new parts.
Have some good index scores now! Graphics gone up from 1,0 to 9,9.

btw, installed the hotfix, and it's recognized by AMD, testing it out tomorrow!

Best of luck ^^

I usually roll around the forums, so reply back to this thread if it gets fixed, or is still broken please. ^^
