Hi all.
I am currently facing a highlight in the long struggle of my desktop computer against blue screen crashes (20% of times) and wierd freezes (80% of times). In those freezes, the following happens: last picture on screen stays, no input at all affects the machine (even Caps Lock toggle doesn't affect the keyboard's indicator l.e.ds, yet they remain as they were before). The mouse doesn't work, yet in its case the optical light sensor shuts down straight away.
I am going through this tiny details just to say it's ambiguous whether the entire computer freezes or just the display.
Anyway, all this started when I stupidly decided to get a new Samsung UHD monitor and connect it as a 2nd monitor to my Quadro FX580 (old) card.
After these things gradually reccured more and more over the last month, now the card doesn't work, right from startup - I get POST indication of graphic card problem, and black screen.
Do you think the card is dead? anyone have a thought as for what measures can be taken or whether upgrading the Quadro card will help?
Thanks a lot.
