Hello everyone,
So I returned from a run yesterday morning to find my desktop was riddled with artifacts much like
I first tried a simple reset. Upon Windows startup, received multiple notifications that the nVidia driver has crashed and recovered, until the screen went black. Unable to get past BIOS I proceeded to use my onboard graphics (Intel HD4000) to gather more information.
Screen grabs from GPUz and Device Manager:
After a fresh driver install (Using DDU) I was still seeing the same artifacts and crashes. So I decided to do a fresh vBIOS flash, using the stock vBIOS image for my card from here.
Still no luck, so I'm stuck here: (1) I find a solution to revive my videocard (hopefully with the help of all you guys), (2) I try and RMA my videocard to MSI, or (3) I resign myself to the fact that my GTX670 is toast, and use onboard graphics until I can afford a new card.
Looking forward to your replies, thank you!
