Have you installed your graphics drivers? If you have, have you tried reinstalling the, using DDU to clean out the old drivers?

i dont get enough time to do it

 

[Woody1999]

You haven't had time to install your graphics drivers? There's your problem mate. Set aside some time, get the drivers, and then let us know if they fixed your problem.

when I log into windows I see my desktop for a minute then black I use the on board graphics and downloaded the drivers still nothing when I went into bios to check make sure everything is ok it stays on for some reason it only goes out when I log into windows

I'd try running DDU and see if it helps, but it sounds like a dodgy card. Here's the DDU download link: http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

thanks it works now but I have another problem my gta v saids I have 512mb of ram and I went to dxdiag same thing do I just upgrade the driver

 

[Woody1999]

In DxDiag, does it say you have 8GB of RAM? If so, GTA V should not tell you that you only have 512MB, unless you have a physics cap on how much it can use. Make sure that the priority of the GTA V process isn't at low in Task Manager.

Try some older driver, for example the one on the MSI website. These are often older drivers, but they may be more stable than the latest ones.
