I recently bought an Asus GTX 750ti 2GB DDR5 OC and it run well and powerful for a new rig i build. Problem is a power outage occured while I was playing, after that I reboot and then my PC is generally slow in performance.

Not only that, a black screen accompanied by this message "<<<Reading Media...No media reader found>>>" something like that flashes for a few seconds after the Mobo logo.

I have done everything from software based scans and repair to Extensive Hardware troubleshooting.

A strip-down of the Rig confirms my hunch that the GPU is the caused of the problem.

The GPU is newly bought therefore a warranty for service and technical support is an option though I doubt they will fix it in time.

what should I do?

My Specs:

Asus GTX 750ti 2GB GDDR5 OC
Intel i-5 4440 @ 3.0Ghz - 3.4Ghz turbo boost
Kingston Hyper-X 16GB 8x2 RAM @ 1600mhz
Antec VP450 PSU
Asus DVD-R /CD ROM
Toshiba 1TB Sata HDD @ 7200RPM
 


Install the new driver without removing the old driver?

and which if i need to DL it from Asus site or from Nvidia site?
 


go to this link, select GTX 750 ti, and download it:

when installing the new driver, select the option which will uninstall any old graphics devices.
 


sorry mate for replying late. As for this method I've tried it by using IGD option on boot and installing the update drivers. The message doesn't appear anymore but the flashing cmd-like blackscreen is still there, so does the slow performance. A reformat shou'd do for the viruses that bypassed my anti-malware but if the GPU still act like this I might take the warranty ticket and see the vendor for issues.
