So I started having graphics problems 2 days ago whilst playing games on windows 10, like having a black screen for 1 second, or random white bars coming up. I switched off my PC and the next day I got the D:\windows\system32\logfiles\Srt\SrtTrail.txt problem. I tried using some of the solutions in the cmd but they had no affect. I then tried going back to a previous version of windows, system restore and reset this pc but none worked. I believe it is a driver problem with my gpu, but whenever I tried installing another version of the drivers in safe mode with networking, I got error 99, meaning I can't change drivers.
I'm a bit stuck at the moment, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

My specs:
AMD Radeon R9 270x
SanDisk 240g SSD
AMD fx-8370
ASRock 970 Pro3
 
Solution
check your RAM with memtest.org (usb autoinstaller)
check your HDD with its manufacturer´s tool

check with another graphics card, check your 270x in another PC (most likely cause is a defective GPU)

Thanks yeah I think I may just have to buy a new gpu. The problem seems to have happened to quite a few people
