Random display driver crashes

Go to solution Solved by RadiatingLight,

Most graphics card issues can be solved by uninstalling and reinstalling your GPU drivers. If you haven’t done this yet (or haven’t used Display Driver Uninstaller to remove drivers), I’d recommend using Display Driver Uninstaller, found here: https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html (download links at bottom of page) and I’d recommend using the “Clean and Restart” option.

 

Once this is done, you can download new drivers by clicking on the links below and selecting your hardware.

Hi everyone. Recently I updated my cards from a 989 sli to a gtx 1080ti, the day I did the replacement the pc didn't turn in, but luckily the board has a built-in number lcd for erorrs and it pointed the ram, I switched it and it uymmturned on. It ran fine for two months until recently, I get random browser freezes (Mozilla and chrome), the display turns black for a second then it comes back, also happened while watching a downloaded video, the event viewer shows a windows virtual memory problem and also a video driver problem, however it doesn't happen when I'm gaming, even after several hours. Any ideas? Thank you

Thank you, is this better than choosing the *perform a clean installation * from the Nvidia driver? Also there's something fishy about windows, no benchmark made by unigine starts (no errors), and cmd doesn't work either, and last the windows reset failed to restore windows lol. Thank you
