    Question Boot SSD keeps spiking to 100% and freezing system for 10 seconds (Windows 10 )

    No, I just swapped out the drive from the old Mobo to the new Mobo. I'm trying to avoid doing a fresh install of the OS. That is my last resort really. I have read other threads suggesting to do a fresh OS install, and it more often than not being reported back as not the solution. I am aware...

    Question Boot SSD keeps spiking to 100% and freezing system for 10 seconds (Windows 10 )

    My setup: Hi everyone I recently upgraded my mobo/CPU/RAM and ever since, my boot SATA SSD keeps randomly spiking to 100%. This freezes the system for about 10 seconds. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to what causes it to kick in. I have tried the following troubleshooting...

    Question My GPU won't work when driver is installed

    The card is now working, I haven't had the heart to render a video yet but everything seems fine for some unknown reason. I upgraded to Windows 10 and downloaded the latest driver, it never worked. I uninstalled the driver again using DDU, then tried the CD that came with the card. I installed...

    Question My GPU won't work when driver is installed

    Hello, So EVGA suggested that I upgraded my operating system or reinstall the current version. I opted to upgrade to Windows 10. Still, the exact same issue: after the windows logo shows during boot, the PC cuts off signal to any monitors. I do not have another PC or know anyone who has a PC...

    Question My GPU won't work when driver is installed

    My screen never turned blue, it just went off altogether during a render of a video. And also I haven't noticed any difference in my fans. Restarting the PC hasn't solved the issue. The only reason why I'm able to use this card right now to type this is because the drivers aren't installed...

    Question My GPU won't work when driver is installed

    During the troubleshooting I have been using HDMI. (Currently using it now to write these posts) When I first got the card and installed it (and it worked for 2 days), I was using both HDMI and Display port but via a Display Port to VGA adapter (my old samsung monitor only has VGA). Both worked...

    Question My GPU won't work when driver is installed

    Not the very first time I installed it (and it worked for 2 days). But I have used DDU a million times since it stopped working. I cleaned out AMD drivers, Intel drivers and Nvidia drivers. I even tried disabling my onboard graphics and then installing the card back into the motherboard. None...

    Question My GPU won't work when driver is installed

    Yeah, I tried the oldest possible one that is still on Nvidia's website and also a random one from like 3 months ago. I also tried letting Windows choose a driver automatically from the web. None of those options make a difference.

    Question My GPU won't work when driver is installed

    I bought an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 - 6GB and installed it. I was using it for 2 days without any problems (even had a shot of Goat Simulator). However, on day 2 I decided to render a video in Vegas. An hour into the render, I heard the "USB unplug" sound and the PC monitor just shut off. The...
