Hi,

I installed windows 8.1 recently then after it installed automatically the drivers for the video card. the only problem was the video card fan made a lot of noise but I fixed it with more nvidia drivers

After some days of working perfectly, blue screen of death, error code 00000116 (something related with the drivers). I could see image in my monitor but with very low resolution. Since then I tried several times unninstalling drivers and installing previous ones with no success

Yesterday I formated the computer and installed windows 8.1 again......but didn't fix it.

I thought when a graphic card broke u coudn't see any image....

It is important to see also what the computer shows while loading (https://plus.google.com/111362569742206933161/posts/JQW1NMsFPpJ)

Any idea what can be the problem?

I'll try to put the NVIDIA card in another computer to see what happens
I might also install Windows 7 again

Thanks in advance!

UPDATE:
Specs:

Processor: Intel core quad q6600
Motherboard: Gigabyte ep35c-ds3r
RAM: 8gb RAM DDR2 333Mhz
One SSD and 3 HDD

I used CPU-Z to remember the specs and it didn't recognize the graphic card neither

No, I haven't at least not all, I only installed the audio drivers. I didn't thought it was necessary to install the Chipset, LAN or SATA RAID drivers.

The PC worked for some time without installing these MOBO drivers.....but anyway I'll try with Win7 drivers and tell you.

If this doesn't work I may be forced to install Windows 7 again and see what happens

thanks!

I was away and couldn't try but today installing chipset drivers didn't fix the problem.

I installed Windows 7 again and its doesn't work neither. I uploaded two new screen captures

In the decive manager it simply says that this component is having a problem preventing it from working correctly

I don't understand this problem at all.....

next thing I will try is the graphic card in another computer I have at home, assuming I can use it there
