Hi. I had just opened Minecraft windows 10 edition to get on my server and the game crashed. I reopened it and I got into the server but it crashed again. Then all of a sudden my cursor wouldn’t move and red and green lines started flickering around. I had to just cut power to the pc. I tried turning it back on and was going to go to safe mode to reinstall gpu drivers. I couldn’t it instantly just froze. I cut power again and removed my HDMI from the graphics card and plugged it into the integrated. It posted fine and I went to safe mode. Used ddu. Went back to normal windows. I hadn’t deleted the driver installer so I still had it. I tried installing it with that and it failed. I then tried driver booster and it installed fine. My second monitor came up then but both started flickering worse than before. I have 6 days to return this graphics card. I think I’m going to  I was wondering if I should try a system restore first. And if anyone else had ideas. I’m really desperate. TIA

artifacting is normally a sign of dying GPU

especially if it happens while you're in bios too

 

i would return the card.

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

It’s not occurring in the bios. 

maybe it's not leaded heavy enough

 

if DDU-ing doesnt solve it, i would most likely say it's a hardware failure, and send it back

almost all artifacting issue i've seen is a GPU dying symptom
