CRASHing

[9justinas9]

how do i determine who is crashing none of things are overclocked but my pc crash anyways. windows describe it as blueascren but all i have seen is self repeating sound and became robotic while playing super simple to run cs 1.6 altho fps on de_westwood was jumping 60-70 despite my pc is good enough to run gta5 at max settings i dont understand it. i suspect my gpu coz lately it seems like it blackscren on me. just bam and BLACK (not blue)  screen i have already contacted my gpu manufacturer sapphire tech but they advise bios update for the gpu. can bios update really help? and how do i determine if its really gpu i dont wanna sit there and wait hours for it to fail on furmark

I have had a similar issue with my two 7790s, for me it was that the GPU driver installed bad. I had to uninstall the driver then boot into safe mode and use Display Driver Uninstaller. I'm currently using the 15.4 beta with no issues.

Try resetting the cmos / reinstalling your drivers

i used driver uninstaller and installed it back and ssame problem occurs

I would go ahead and update the vBIOS, from what I can find a black screen to crash is usually either GPU failure or a weak PSU, but that shouldn't be an issue. Just in case OCCT does have a PSU test option, and to be on the safe side you could run Furmark over night, just make sure the temps are safe.

my pc keeps shutting down by itself after 10 minutes of usage. outside the fan, what else could be a likely cause

To diagnose the problem you will need at least a day of time. Get on a laptop/phone and do something else while waiting. Memtestx86 will be your first, most likely it is the RAM that is causing issues. Then once that passes after 8+hrs furmark for 4+hrs. My desktop had bluescreen issues and a clean windows 8.1 reinstall fixed everything and made everything better. I believe I had installed a driver I shouldn't have and that caused interference with something else when loading certain games. After the clean install I had installed the audio, graphics driver just because I only use it for gaming and installed nothing extra that I didn't need. Ran the tests with hwmonitor for the night. Next day I started installing games all of them ran well. But you may have a faulty product, so tests are there for a reason.
