Not a graphics card, but a graphics driver problem

[ricecooker15]

I got my laptop this spring. It worked fine, until the summer. i then looked online and ran a DDU and reinstalled the graphics driver. This would fix it for about a week, then I would have to do it again. Around the end of August this has not been working, and it restarts my computer with a blue screen when I try to to fix it this way. This has been the only method that I have found online that has worked for me. I have the most recent driver installed and have no viruses on this laptop. The error code is 43. I do manage to get rid of the error temporarily with the DDU method, but once I launch a game or after a few seconds or minutes it will have a blue crash screen until the error code 43 comes back.

This driver is a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050

Thanks!

Is your PCI-E 6 pin cable pushed in Firmly? It looks like a power problem instead of a Driver one to me...

The 43 error code is often a hardware issue due to power issues.
