atiumdag.dll crash in FSX and others

[Shrinjay2002]

Hello all,

 

It seems I have absolutely fallen in love with this forum thanks to the very simple, prompt and sympathetic help I get on here. This time my issues aren't always with FSX (But it does happen sometimes), but instead with many other games. What's happening is that a certain dll, called atiumdiag.dll or atiumdva.dll keeps crashing at startup of a few games, along with the exception code of 0xc0000005. These games being Sid Civilization V, Arma II, AC3 and AC Revelations. FSX also crashes time to time with this error. The dlls seem to ATI specific display dlls and that's all I know about them. From what I can tell, it has something to do with overclocking as I tried reinstalling the driver and it solved the issue till I enabled MSI again. However I am not sure at all, so I'll let those far more intelligent than me judge. I have included a few logs and my specs below. I appreciate any and all help since I am at my wits end with this error. I am seriously considering just buying Nvidia GPUs from now on due to the sheer amount of AMD related errors I've had.

 

Specs:

Intel Core i3 550 @ 3.2GHz

AMD Radeon HD 6670 2GB Diamond

5GB of RAM

Windows 8.1 64-bit

Reading the title I thought, 'after so many threads on this error I should just say: "get an nvidia gpu" '. Funny how you already came to the same conclusion.

 

Sometimes the newer drivers don't work with the older cards it seems. Heard that a lot about ATI.

Heard it less, much less, about nvidia. My old gt430 is still going strong on the latest drivers.
