Screen goes black and computer freezes

readysetmosh · Jan 31, 2014

Hi, I recently installed the latest drivers for my EVGA GeForce GT 630. Up until now, it's been working like a charm, but when I installed the new NVidia drivers, my computer freezes, displays a black screen, and loops on the last played sound. About 2 weeks ago I installed a new AMD Athlon X2 6000+ CPU. I have a 350w PSU, could that be the problem?

Power is probaly the problems, try get a 500w

Power is not a problem, as 350 W is enough for GT 630.
Try to roll back drivers to previous version, or try last known good configuration and check if its working fine

Oh, I gotchu. No, there aren't but I figured out the problem. The fan on the card wasn't working for whatever reason so I took a fan out of an old PSU and old computer so now it runs like a charm.
