Hi,
Since putting together my new rig I have been having multiple display driver crashes daily. I am getting 3-5 second black screens and the display driver notice "Nvidia display driver has stopped responding and recovered." Note: I have not overclocked the 650Ti at all, it is at stock settings. (*Ahhh! As a matter of fact it just crashed as I am typing this post!)
Here is what I have tried so far:
I uninstalled driver 335.23 and also used Driver Sweeper to make sure it was a full uninstall. I then re-installed 331.82 hoping an older driver would be more stable. No luck, still crashing.
I had also read that sometimes changing PCI-e slots will work. I moved my GPU to the second slot, still no luck.
I thought perhaps my overclocking of the CPU could have something to do with it but I was told to rule this out. Besides, I went back to stock settings to see if that would help but no dice, still having display driver issues. Again, I have not touched any settings with the GPU, it is stock.
What should I try from here? How far should I roll back to old display drivers? (Currently running 331.82). Thank you for the help!
My build:
PSU: Rosewill 900w
CPU: i7 3770k
GPU: GTX 650Ti
Mobo: ASRock z77 extreme4
Memory: Corsair 16GB 1600
