Radeon Invalid ROM Contents

Asked by Steve on 2015-01-07

Whenever i start my computer it shows a black screen displaying the error message Radeon invalid rom contents and crashes any graphic heavy program. I have a feeling it's driver related but i have no idea how to fix it.

Try adding the boot option:

radeon.dpm=1 invalid

Did it happen even after full updates?

So i just did a fresh ubuntu install and did the updates and on the first restart to finish the install of the updates the error message showed up and then all i got was a black screen.

Ok then add the boot option in /etc/default/Grub like any other boot option.

You may be able to update the frim ware on the video adapter but this is not without risk

Can you help with this problem?
