Hi, im using windows 8.1 64 bit and everytime I open Photoshop cs6 for the time after a boot I get this message 'Display driver has stopped working but has recovered', my system can handle photoshop so I know thats not the problem. My graphics card is a AMD Radeon HD 8330.

Hi there and welcome to Eight Forums,

So there seems to be at least some issues with the videocard driver. Have you tried installing the latest drivers for you motherboard aswell as the videocard?

Here you can download the latest AMD drivers ==> Download Drivers

You might also want to check for any updates for Photoshop.

Please try this and post back the results if the error still continues to bug you.

Installed drivers and removed hotspot shield, problem is still occuring, but again if I run the tool it works fine until I turn my laptop off, it seems to me that whatever the AMD/catalyst install manager installs is just volatile and disappears when my laptop is turned off.

It could be one of your PS plugins doing it. Try temporarily removing all plugins from Photoshop then start it up and see how it goes.

There is a simple fix for this. I have tried all the TDRxxxx this and TDRxxx that, increase voltage on graphics card (which I really did not want to do) etc. My machine would have this problem just opening Outlook. I would either get the not responding error or the machine would just freeze up.

This has worked for me:

Open a command prompt as administrator:
Click start
In the search box type cmd
Right click or shift right click the cmd.exe command that appears in the programs list

At the command prompt type:

powercfg.exe /h off and hit enter (this command disables hibernation, if you want to enable again change off to on)

Close the window and reboot

You should not experience these annoying issues now. Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 have a default power scheme that is set to "balanced". Seems that this scheme may be throttling the GPU and is so frustrating. I have read loads of post in numerous forums and none of the fixes suggested worked for me.
