Im trying to build a system for my grandad. Specs:
Gigabyte F2A85XM-D3h (rev 1.1)
AMD A10 6800k
4GB ram
120 GB SSD
When I installed windows everything runs fine - but when I install the catalyst drivers (for decent screen resolution) it works for about 10s when I log in (no problem until after I log in to windows), then the screen kind of breaks up (I can still basically see everything) but the mouse doesnt work, nothing is selectable, then the machine reboots.
I thought at first it might be a power supply problem (the case came with a cheap 500W supply) so bought a decent coolermaster 500w one. Same problem.
Ive re-installed the drivers making sure I have the correct ones after fully uninstalling it. Still same problem.
Is this likely to be a dodgy APU? anything else I could try?
