[SOLVED]Random BSOD (graphics driver?)
Hi, I've recently bought a new Gigabyte HD 7970C-3GD and have been having bluescreens lately.
I have tried reinstalling a clean windows which seems to help till I install the graphics driver.
I have ran memtest and it came out good.
Updated windows to the latest updates.
Disabled my motherboard gpu.
Only installed the driver with catalyst (no hd audio or sdk thingies)
Pulled out my extra HDD too.
Samsung SSD 830 series 256GB
Gigabyte HD 7970C-3GD
AMD Athlon II X2 260 Processor
Corsair vengeance LP (2x4GB)
ASUS M4A7BLT-M
Corsair TX 650W
I don't actually get an error code but my screen turns black/striped green and pc immediately restarts or audio is heard playing continually till I turn the computer off without an image. These occur random at any time and don't seem to crash on specific tasks. Usually some browsing, watching a video or playing a game (League of legends).
Thanks in advance.
