Hi,

So, my video card driver would tend to crash here and there but not often. Then one day I updated my driver then now all the time my PC kept crashing. I even got BSOD. So eventually I decided to reinstall windows. Everything was working fine. I installed latest drivers no problem. Then once I opened up hearthstone I could see tears on my screen, weird colours then it just crashed and couldn't fix it. I'm resetting my PC now. Is it my video card or SSD? It's getting frustrating. Good thing I backed up my stuff. I would appreciate the help. Thanks.

 

Specs:

GT660TI

3770k

Sabertooth z77

16gb RAM

364.72 driver

Windows 10Pro

What does event viewer say?

 

I'd advise a clean install of Windows.

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!

I've cleaned installed once and same thing happened. I just reinstalled a third time and well I haven't bothered to install the driver

It is 100% driver related.  You need to make sure you're installing Windows correctly.
