Hi people.
I built my own pc around may this year, but in november I bought my new video card. A EVGA Geforce GTX 760.
I removed the old one (Radeon HD6750), uninstalling driver before, and put the new card, installed the drivers, and everything was ok.
Mobo: Asus P9X79 PRO
CPU: Intel i7 3820
RAM: Corsair 32gb 1600mhz (4x8)
SSD: Corsair 180gb
HD: Seagate barracuda 2Tb
PSU: Corsair GS700
Yesterday morning (almost two months later), when I started the pc, I did note that was appearing some little colored boxes on the screen. So I decided restart the pc. Then, after the Windows logo, I got a screen stuck at 640x480 and with very poor range of colors. When I try open EVGA Precision X he says "not supported hardware detected" and when open NVidia Control Panel says "you are not currently using a display attached to an NVIDIA GPU".
I did some search on the web which gave me possible reasons, about driver issue or card-monitor link issue.
1- I uninstalled the driver and reinstalled the same drive from CD.
result: the screen came back to normal without driver, but when I reinstall the driver the problem returns
2- I changed the DVI output, and changed the monitor cable to VGA, using adaptor on the card.
result: change the DVI output dont make difference, and using a VGA cable the monitor cant detect anything and go sleep mode
3- I installed the newest driver from NVidia website
result: worse, pc reset everytime after windows logo on boot. Had to go safe mode and uninstall this driver.
4- I installed other driver from Geforce website, not the newest but newer than one from CD.
result: returned to original problem
5- Restored the system to day 17 (before problem starts)
result: restored to original driver, but problem persists
So is the situation I am now.
Someone has any idea about whats is happening?
thanks for atention.
