my system recognizes the graphic card and in the device manger it shows my display adapter as gtx 650 ti.when the vga plug is attached to my gtx 650 ti the boot screen and desktop(low resolution) appears without any nvidia drivers installed....but when i install the nvidia drivers and restart, my screen goes blank(different colors appear each time i restart like once blue and once green...)....plz some one help...........

my guess is that
1. there is some problem with driver where my cpu and gpu are not compatible
2. some problem in vga driver.

my old card is nvidia 8400 gs and when i attach it my screen comes normally........the only problem is when i attach my gtx 650 ti and restart my pc the display crashes at the log in screen.

what i have done till now
1. updated bios
2. changed bios settings.
3. finished windows update.
4. installed all the previous drivers for the card including beta versions but it din't matter.

my specs
processor : intel core 2 duo E7400 2.8 GHz
mother board: gigabyte ga g311m es2l
psu : cool master 550 w RS-550-PCAr
ram : 4gb ddr2 ram
hard drive : 320 gb
gpu : nvidia geforce 8400 gs
at present trying to attach my palit gtx 650 ti
 
There is no reason to stick with Ivy.

whats your full system Config...?
 

c2d e7400 @2.8ghz, 2gb ram (actually 3gb but as i said i took out 1gb ram as it was causing crashing at login screen),
gtx 650 non ti, 320gb sata, light scribe disc drive, beetel bt450r (22a on 12v) psu.
 


I use a Asus GTX 650 Ti with Cooler Master Extreme Power 600 Watt and it Runs my card flawlessly having 18A on two 12 volt rail . But I think his PSU is defective :)
 
This is a minefield. I am looking to buy a 600 series, either the 650 Ti or 660. I'm scared witless that this will happen, that I'd be distraught, and spending hours cleaning and installing drivers.

I have been reading forums and searching lots online for this issue, and I don't even have a 600 series GPU yet.

Some of the ways people mentioned getting their cards going were as follows.

1. Some were having issues with sound card conflict. As you see in this thread someone found a way around that.
2. Some downclocked their card, not significantly. They just removed the factory overclock.
3. Some increased the voltage to the card. Upping 25mV or 0.025V worked for some.
4. Some installed earlier versions of drivers.


Really I hope that soon nVidia will fix their drivers, because this is very sad for users. I assume that is where the problem is since some people have their cards running fine and once they update, eveything goes wrong. Also I keep seeing the message reported about drivers failed and recovered. Until they fix it, good luck everyone.
 
case solved people!!!! sorry for my late reply.i found my purchase bill and returned the card...the card went to the service center and got modified..it seems there was some defect in the bios of the graphic card. again thanks for all the support you people have given me..now games run amazing....finshed playing most of the games....graphics are mind blowing!!!!
 
hey all been reading through all of this thread, I'm having same problem
basically I have an hp p6-2055a, only mod is another 4gb ram
changed the psu to a fsp 400 - 550w
I'm using an evga gtx650 ti ssc 1gb
got the same sort of issue, its fine until I put it under ant sort of load, in a game or 2 browser windows
it crashes, coloured screens etc, sometimes its comes back on saying graphics card stopped and re started or something like that but the next time it stops all over rover, all the coloured screens
has it been determined its a psu problem, drivers or have they all been case by case?
 
I had a similar issue with Asus GTX 650 ti boost. It worked ok on with my Win 7 system and the driver from the disc in the product package was installed correctly and working great for Assassin Creed 4. now I reinstalled my Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit, the OS come with a generic VGA driver. I tried to installed the driver for GTX ti boost and rebooted the system. It freezes right after the Windows welcome screen and my desktop cannot load up (shows a blue screen with windows logo). I tried to reinstall the OS multiple times and reinstall the driver (different versions from the Nvidia website). None is working. I am looking for solutions too. Thanks very much!

Which FSP PSU do you have? One PSU sticker is there which as 2 rails of 18 A and 480 W of output which is 40 A. Recipe for disaster.
Others are gold certified.
Which one have you got? Maybe it's cheap quality and is causing all those problems.

You may have installed the wrong driver.
If that is not the problem trying updating to windows 8.1 and then installing the drivers from the website instead of the cd.
