MERGED QUESTION
Question from MistaTACO : "constant crashing after new installs"

got a new psu and gpu 400w and 750ti. i keep crashing and i have a theory is it b/c i installed drivers from the disc and nvidia experience?

1. You want to install the latest drivers

2. You never want to let Windows install any HW drivers.

So....

A. Turn off Windows ability to install Hardware drivers

B. Download latest drivers and GFE and install wherever you store downloads ... say D:\Download\nVidia

http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us
http://www.geforce.com/geforce-experience

C. Disconnect ethernet cable or disable WiFi

D. Reboot and uninstall everything in Programs and Features that says nVidia on it.... Reboot

E. Install drivers and GFE

F. Shutdown, connect cable, Boot

It might have nothing to do with your GPU and PSU, login issues and freezes are more of a HDD problem, does it take more than 40seconds to log into windows? if so your HDD could be the culprit. Try running a chkdsk /r on your C: drive (or whichever partition you have windows on) and see if it finds any issue.

Bear in mind the chkdsk /r can easily take 1+ hrs to finish.
