I hope someone can help. OK so a few days ago I happen to update my driver,after the installation was complete I restarted my PC and tried to play Garry's Mod but as it was loading the screen had turned black and stopped responding along with windows giving me a error causing my windows to shut it down and had given me a error code 43 on my Graphic card,So I researched and researched and people had given me loads of advise and Id tried it out I've deleted my drivers for it and reinstall yet the problem still stands I am unable to run any games on my PC without them being unresponsive and closing along with windows shutting the device down.

OK so The os Im running is windows 10 build 10.0.16299,My system type is x64 based Pc,My processor is an AMD Ryzen 7 1700 eight core processor,My graphics card is a Geforce Gtx 1060 6gb, 16gb ram and my motherbored is a Prime B350-plus is there anymore that is needed?

If anyone can help I would be very grateful Thanks.

Did you do a fresh install of Windows when you build the PC or did you move your hard drive from an old computer that already had Windows installed on it? Also, have you run all of your Windows Updates? I've noticed that not running updates can cause odd things to happen. When you were installing the GPU drivers, did you get them directly from Nvidia's website, if not get them from there.
 


I installed Window fresh as I didn't bring anything from my old computer however I have no tried to update my windows since I have downloaded it so I will try that and get back to you also I got the driver updates from the Ge force experience app.
 


Click Start and type dxdiag and tap enter. Click on the Display tab. Next to Name do you see your card?

Yes? Uninstall the card from your Device Manager(Right click Start and click on Device Manager) Download and install the latest driver like you did. Install the latest driver and reboot.

No? Your GFX card may be bad.

Make and model of your PSU? Age?
 


all the parts are new and where bought just before Christmas last year as for what you said the answer is yes it did pop up with the right stuff after dxdiag but upon uninstalling it and restarting my computer I waited for it to completely load and I tried running some of the games and it ended up with the same out come of windows shutting down my graphics card as for my PSU it is a EasyRail XT 600 and I bought it before Christmas last year . Thank you for the suggestion also.
 


I'd contact the card's manufacturer and discuss this issue with them. You might need to send the card in for a replacement.
