Windows 7

(Ill attach DXdiag when i figure out how to, But for now...)

Specs:
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Motherboard: Gigabyte X79-UD3
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3820 CPU @ 3.60GHz (8 CPUs), ~3.8GHz
Card name: AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series
Ram: 8gb Kingston HyperX
Audio: (Realtek High Definition Audio)


Now

Randomly while playing ever over the last 3-4 days, The entire screen will freeze, and i can only hear a loud buzzing sound, I cant alt tab, cant do anything besides restart the computer.

This can occur any time, 3 times during combat, The other soon after undocking. It happens about 2-3 hours after play, Besides last night where it happened within 20 minutes of each other.

There is no Mini dumps, No crash logs, HOWEVER, In Reliability monitor, its listed whenever it crashed, But one specific occurrence also has...
Critical event
Windows Video Hardware Error 2/07/1012


I ran tests on my ram, It seems fine, Using Furmark tests, i have pushed the graphics card harder than eve does, No crashs then, I cant figure out the issue. Can you?

This is because of the AMD Cards iv been having the same problem and i just got this new badass pc and i cant even play eve with it. My hole pc locks up when i play eve and only when i play eve and only when i start doing things in game. I know CCP is close with nvidia but a large part of your player base is having these problems with their AMD cards and only in your game(including me) thus stopping them from playing your wonderful game plz CCP FIX THIS!!! ty.

Iv'e got the same issue, random freezing, especially when i open the map etc. Asus 7970 DCII. Iv'e filed a petition and bug report, everybody who encounters the freezing should do the same, AMD and CCP needs to do something about this, and fast.
As it is now it's unplayable, which isn't much fun considering i'm paying a monthly sub. PLEASE do something.
