Graphics Card Driver Issues!

[DruggedUpTurtle]

Hi All!

Well yesterday my PC was built and today I started the installations.

I installed Windows 8.1 without any issues and went straight away to download my GPU Driver.

Specs:

GeForce GTX 780 SC ACX
24GB RAM
MSI Z87 MPOWER SP
700w PSU
Plenty of Cooling (WC H100i and 4 fans)
Windows 8.1 64 bit
27'' Viewsonic

The problem is once I have downloaded the GPU Driver and it asks me to restart, I do so and it then go's to MSI Boot up screen as usual. And brings up the Windows boot screen, (windows 8 icon in the middle) and then for about 2 seconds it has the refreshing circle, but then it crashes into a blue screen (the blue is my personalisation for Windows 8.1)

Ver 331.82 for the driver? The latest for Win 8.1? if so, sounds like you have 3 x8GB of DRAM or 2x8GB + 2x4GB - try with only 2x8GB (in slots 1-3) and see what happens

Yes. I tried from device manager, auto updater through the nvidia website and the exact driver for the card I had. I tried it with both 8GB bars and then 2x4GB, then even 4GB on its own.

Still did the same.

Don't know, how about through Safe Mode - any luck?

Problem is with Windows 8.1 is that no matter on what screen startup or anything safe mode has been inaccessible.

Well. The issue was not to do with anything. Was to do with my personal error that I bloody used DVI connection AND HDMI!

Fixed! <3
