Display driver issues.


My pc is acting strangely. I just get random blue screens ( wich is only visible for a fraction on a sec, so i cant read a thing of it. ) and then my pc restarts. it doesnt make a difference if my pc is running a game, or if its just in windows, so it cant be the PSU.



also, when i click send report ( after the message windows has recovered from a serious error) it says its a driver problem.



i already updated the drivers ( from the xfx page, and from nvidia) but that didnt made a difference.



anyone has any idea whats causing that?

try reinstalling the drivers for your videocard again and see if the video card is seated properly in its slot

i knew you tried both of them but i said was to renistall them again but anyway it cant be your powersupply but check to see if your videocard is heating up.

its only 3 months old. however, i dont want to send it back before i know its broke. and it doesnt look like it. becaus, it does crash randomly.

if it was hardware, there would have been a certain point weher it would standard crash. ( like 3 hours on, or under full load )

im pretty convinced its software. i just dont know what to look for.



maybe i whould reinstall windows
