Issues with my graphics card (BSODs, crashes etc.)

[mrsotok]

Hello friends,

Recently I've purchased a graphics card, because of my old one, which was failing [(?), still, not sure)]. The issues I've been facing with both the old and the new one are Black screens, crashes and BSODs. To begin with, the crashes are related to the Graphics drivers (Event viewer IDs :4101 TDR issue, 100 - a faulting application, Dying Light is the one which crashed and 1, NVidia's OpenGL Driver. The BSOD is related to this code: VIDEO_SCHEDULER_INTERNAL_ERROR.

My old graphics card was the Gigabyte RX 460 2G and the new one is the Palit GTX 1060 3G dual fan. I applied the stock speeds to both cards, to minimize the chance of having one of the issues listed above. I also had another card with the same PSU (I will list it below), which was a GTS 250 1GB which died suddenly.

I have done a memtest with the stock ram speeds (XMP disabled). I uninstalled the drivers (both AMD's and NVidia's) with DDU with the known process (safe mode etc.) and reinstalled Windows.
I've also changed my CPU, RAM and Motherboard bundle to a new one (R3 1200, 8GB RAM and AB350-Gaming 3 - was Core 2 Quad Q9400, 4GB DDR3 and P41T-ES3G). In conclusion, I believe that it is the power supply which causes the problem. It is the Be Quiet System Power B8 550 W 80+. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Did you perform a fresh install of the Operating System when you changed your Intel platform to the AMD platform?

I built myself a pc last week and have been having the same problems - occasional crashes to BSOD, display going blank when playing games, mixed reality headset keeps going blank. Its gradually got worse to the point I cannot boot using my GeForce 970 although I can switch over to it once my desktop has loaded.

I thought has my GeForce 970 expired? Do I have temperature problems? Is my PSU dying? Someone just asked me if I did a fresh install of the OS. I didnt, I plugged my new SSD card in and moved it across from my HDD. I have ordered Win 10 full version to arrive tomorrow as my original win 8.1 was OEM and the key dont work for it anymore.

Did you perform a fresh install of the Operating System when you changed your Intel platform to the AMD platform?

Yes, I did it twice, for both GPUs

Well that should all be okay. Assuming its not drivers and as you said you did a fresh OS install then can I suggest running some games using your on board graphics? They should consume less power than a dedicated GPU and if thats stable it narrows it down some more.

You also might want to try a fresh install of your OS without the falls creator update.

Well, the R3 1200 does not have integrated graphics, only the 2200G AND 2400G. I am waiting for the new SSD to perform a clean install of Windows 10. Probably I will buy a new power supply, too.

Ok I have a possible solution for you.

Turn your pc on and wait for an example of your graphics card failing to boot or crashing. Open your case and look at your power cables plugged into your GPU. Are they fully in or have they popped out a little?

Right now, I can run games without crashing, because it happens occasionally. I see no artifacts or any kind of glitching.. So I guess that it must be the drivers. The only thing I can do now it to wait until I see something weird
