Try reseating everything (cpu, ram, gpu, and every power connector). Check the +12V voltage at the GPU (use GPU-z or HWinfo).

What OS and PSU (brand/model?)

 

[Bluewinters]

I tried remounting it all already, the GPu voltage is 0.9V and im using Windows 7 Professionl and Psu is Thermaltake TR2

also it says the driver that stops working is that windows kernal mode driver stopped responding

 

[BlacKHawK3]

The nominal voltage on the GTX 770 while in 3D mode is 1.200V. The driver drops this in 2D mode to 0.900, but is supposed to ramp up the voltage and clocks when you launch a 3D app (e.g. game). If the voltage is under about 1.000 in 3D mode, the GPU will cause a driver crash similar to what you describe.

Can you check if the GPU voltage jumps above 0.900 when a game is launched? MSI afterburner can moniter and graph this for you while running in the background.

It says at around 8.7 volts to 9 volts when i launch games, i was just doing all my windows updates, aparently hearthstone works, i tested Cs;Go it launches but crashes before game can start

 

[BlacKHawK3]

If this started happening when you installed some Windows Updates, do a System Restore to a time before the updates. Those can mess drivers up.

i just tried the Regedit fix i found, did not work.

 

[Bluewinters]

the problem occurred before the windows update's were installed, i tried to install it because i thought it could have been a solution to the issue.

i tried sooo manny fixes and this new comp has been problem after problem i hope its actually just bad video ram cause they will replace it, but i had a boot issue with my ssd earlier so ima get the whole system tested tmwr at canada computers.... welp time to weep.
