Hi. Up until a few days ago, my PC has been running just fine. I started getting lag and lock ups frequently, but it's now proceeded to the point where it will POST, go to the Windows 8 spinning circle and logo, then the screen will go black. It must be sending some sort of signal, as my monitor automatically goes into standby if it doesn't get anything.
The PC works fine if I use the 3570K's iGPU. The PC does not work if I use a GTX560 that I know works in another rig instead of the GTX770. It will boot into safe-mode with either card connected. I've tried removing the NVidia drivers using the provided uninstaller as well as a third party display driver uninstaller. Neither card works on any of the PCIe slots.
I'm really at a loss as to what the issue might be, since my troubleshooting didn't really allow me to come to any conclusions. It seems like something driver/software/OS related, but I don't think any of my tests rules out some sort of issues with the motherboard either.
