Could be, couldn't hurt to boot Memtest86+ & do an overnight scan. Best
test is card in another system. Thoughts would wander towards the PSU
output vs. load also.
Trick I find with ATI drivers is the crash recovery trigger is too
sensitive timing (timeout?) wise thus wants to reset even when the card
may have to continued to respond, this for no other reason than loose
timing caused by high video+cpu+hdd loads IMHO.
So even when they work they hickup more often then they should.

I used ATI Install Manger to remove the driver. Rebooted.
Then I removed the driver that was installed in Device Manager.
Then I used Driver Cleaner.net to remove all ATI drivers.
Rebooted.
Got GPU-Z running.
Now, the driver is back. I guess Win7 is reloading the driver.
I don't see anything strange here. GPU Temp is 41C, fan speed is 35%,
and the 3 GPU temps are 38.5 to 41C.
Yet, the problem persists. Even while typing this out...the screen
freezes, then the screen goes dark, then it returns with a message
saying that the video card driver failed and restarted. This just
started happening today.
