Tons of driver errors and programs crashing

I'm getting tons of driver errors and in the event log, I'm getting thesis errors "A request to disable the Desktop Window Manager was made by process (4)" and "The Desktop Window Manager was unable to start because composition was disabled by a running application" My specs are below.

PC specs:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OEM
An A10 7850k (integrated GPU turned off)
GPU: R9 270x Sapphire
Ram: Kingston blue 1600mgz x4
MotherBoard: Msi A88xm E45
Case: Fractal core 1000
Cooler: deep cool 300
2 Hard drives
PSU Corsair CX 600m


This all started after 7weeks after installing windows 7 back in 2015 march my PC was getting a message saying "Display driver amdkmdap stopped responding and has successfully recovered." and at that time I thought I had it fixed because it stopped for a long time about 2 months later it started again and stayed like that and still is going on I will give you some ways I tried to fix the problem.

I forgot to say that I do get black screens and crashes by windows and applications and BSOD's.

I changed the TDR to 8, 10 didn't work then I disabled Desktop Window Manager worked for 10secounds :LOL: Put programs to work in administrative mode didn't work Used all of the Compatibility options, Changed my drivers that didnt work so i changed them again but did a full uninstall for all AMD software on my michine and reinstall didnt work I switched between both GPU and IGPU didnt work both had the problem I went oflline didn't work (I know it's stupid but what else can i do?) Tested my Ram and harddrive for errors non found Going to do those over night again this night and next. So got any other ideas? can you guys help me also I'm going to get 901 in Feb so that a positive so if non-work we can just build or change my current build so I'm ready fo the replays! :whistle: If you need any files just ask okay (y)

You need a better quality power supply.
The CX series is for basic systems.

Thanks, Why did i belive my dad... I should've did it by my self Anyways can you suggest me a decent upgrade from my new system? Because i'm getting 901 wait no £750
You need an AX, TX, or AI series PSU from Corsair. You should never run a heavy gpu off a CX series PSU. It is asking for problems.
I've had no issues with CX PSUs in my gaming systems.
It's not necessarily saying you WILL have problems...BUT it depends on several key elements.

However if you go to Corsair's website they SPECIFICALLY state a CX is ONLY for a basic build.
