Hello helpful people of TechSpot,
I'm creating this thread because my graphics card is reoccurring problem. This problem occurs on multiple occasions. I am sure loading a game (Civilization V, Starcraft 2) is causing this to occur but in the past I think running multiple applications (web browser, music application, games) has also had the same effect. This error isn't constant, I have had multiple occasions where I can load multiple apps. or a game as mentioned and have no video hardware error at all.
The only other thing I can report is before I installed my new graphics cards, (see specs below) I had another card that I swapped out. The software is still installed but I figure that doesn't effect my current graphics card. I have installed the software for my new graphics card using the CD software but I fear something may have gone awry.
My specs are:
Graphics Card:
ASUS HD7870-DC2TG-2GD5-V2 Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition
Motherboard:
ASRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68
Processor:
Intel Core i5-2400 Sandy Bridge 3.1GHz
Here is a log of my most recent hardware error:

I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions on what I should do to fix this reoccurring problem.
In addition, a less significant question: Am I able to uninstall past video card software? I am wondering this because I have gotten rid of my older graphics card as mentioned above and I would like to uninstall the software because I no longer need it.
Thanks a ton!
