I'm using windows 8.1, 64 bits, RAM 12 GB, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 (192-bit) and when i turn on thge switch of ShadowPLay the screem gets black and the PC restarts automaticatilly.

I have had the same problem and have been unable to find an answer for it on the NVidia forums.


CPU:Intel Core i7 4770
Operating System: Microsoft® Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Motherboard: Gigabyte H87M-HD3
RAM: 16GB DDR3 1333mhz (2x8GB)
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 2GB
PSU: 650W Corsair VS

Driver: 335.23

As soon as I flick that switch to turn on shadowplay, my screen loses connection to the card and I have to do a force shutdown. Upon restart the resolution ratio is at some crazy size and that driver has been wiped. After reinstalling the driver and fixing the resolution I haven't touched shadowplay again in hope it will be fixed in the next driver update.


 


happen to me once although i did not remember if i was using new driver when i did the re-installing but it never happen again after that. anyway try using much latest round of driver from nvidia and make sure GFE being updated to latest version

Actually I don't recall what driver I had been using prior to the bug which occurred. When I get home I shall try it again and see if it happens with this driver and will reply here with what happens.

Okay, so when i got home i went onto the GeForce experience, and worryingly switched it on. And to my surprise it worked! Haven't tested the recording system yet but i am just glad it hasn't reproduced the previous bug (as of yet)
