Specs:
Ryzen 5 5600x
MSI GTX 1660 Super Ventus XS OC
MSI b550i mpg gaming edge wifi
2x8GB Kingston Fury 3200Mhz
Corsair RM650 PSU
3x LianLi SL120
1x Arctis 120mm fan
I recently installed Marvels Guardians of the Galaxy on my PC and as I was just completing the prologue, the game froze. I tried to get into the task manager but to no avail since my whole PC was frozen. Ultimately my system gave me a BSOD citing "Video TDR failure"
After trying to boot my PC multiple times, I wouldn't load into windows. I would get the POST screen but never reach my desktop, although my PC was running since I could hear USB plug in plug out sounds. Tried Ctrl + Win + Shift + B multiple times but it would ultimately give me "Video TDR failure".
I went into Safe Mode and DDU'd the graphics driver. When I went on to install new graphics drivers in normal mode, the installer would reach the 30% mark and the screen would start flickering, it would go black and never come back although my computer was still on.
After that I tried multiple things:
-Installed new windows but same issue when trying to install graphics driver
-Had a spare SSD at hand, replaced my current boot drive with that and installed windows but still same issue while installing graphics driver.
-Removed other storage drives and tried to boot from a single SSD but still the same error.
-Reseated GPU & RAM multiple times
-Tried Different cable
-Power cycled the whole PC
-Checked windows Logs but nothing Nvidia related came up although there was something was some errors with "KERNELBASE.dll"
My Processor doesnt have an integrated GPU so I can't boot directly by plugging in the motherboard.
I can easily go into Safe Mode and Normal mode too, but the moment I'm installing the graphics driver. Black Screen -> BSOD -> Reboot and the cycle continues.
Another strange thing that I noticed was the moment I connected to Wi-Fi/ethernet, the system would automatically detect GPU drivers and back to the same cycle : Black Screen -> BSOD -> Reboot. Mind you this is with fresh windows installation with absolutely nothing.
I plan on plugging my system to a different monitor but I doubt that'll do me any good.
Can this be a faulty fan controller or a faulty ram? If that'd be the case, why is my PC working fine in Safe Mode but the moment I install graphics drivers, it goes into an endless loop of BSOD.
Please help!
