Green boxes graphical errors.

[F a c e]

Getting randomly graphical errors in the form of little green squares appearing on screen, often resulting in bluescreens or just the pc restarting. Been like this since i put i put in: 60 GB SSD, GTX 660 GPU, 500 Watt PSU, and a AMD A8 CPU (probably). Dunno what to do know, tried many things

Picture of the error just before a bluescreen/blackscreen (ignore my cheesy background) :lol:

That are these many things you tried so we don't just repeat what you did already?

I've Tried unistalling/reinstalling display drivers, i've also tried overclocking my cpu and other hardware. I've even tried the simple things like disabling and enabling my Display drivers and taking the graphics card out and putting it in again. Still got the same problems

Overclocking will do the opposite of what you want, it can only make issues worse.

What is the brand and model of the power supply?

You need to test the card in another system with a good power supply, a GTX 660 is not likely to be new, if you just bought it form someone, the card can be bad.

Also check for a newer BIOS for the motherboard, that is not likely to help since the issue is most likely with a bad card or low quality power supply.

I highly suspect it is the GPU as i just disabled it and started using the Inbuilt graphics, no errors so far, i hope this is as effective as swapping it into another as i dont have a spare one to hand. sadly, it looks like i might have to just buy a new Graphics card, as nothing software related has been able to fix this

That is not a good thing to have in your computer, it can not only cause issues with the video card, but every component in the system. It may be the video card, but it may be the power supply that caused the issue in the first place.
