Today I was playing CSGO and randomly my computer crashes and I have to reset, after I do this Windows logo appears and after that a black screen. I read a lot of threads and vaguely know it's something to do with my graphics card. I can boot into safe mode only.
Here are somethings that I've tried:
1. Use driver sweeper and remove all display drivers, then install the latest drivers
2. install different versions such as 14.7 beta, 14.4, 13.12, 13.9 and even the drivers the card came with.
3. try removing the graphics card physically and re-seat it in the pcie
4. Remove the graphics card via device manager and also delete the drivers (after reboot into normal windows, it shows it as vga)
other info:
I can boot normally after the driver sweeper is used in safe mode, windows then starts to install drivers again and after reboot it's the black screen which appears right after the windows logo. I've had this setup for around 2 years now, and this is the first time I've had issues with graphics drivers. Any help is appreciated because at this point I'm really frustrated...
Specs:
CPU: AMD FX6300
MOBO: Asus M5a99x evo
Graphics card: Asus HD6850
Ram: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4gb)
Case: Cooler Master Haf X
PSU: Corsair AX850w
HDD: Segate Barracuda
OS: Windows 7 64bit
Update: I tried using an older graphics card and installed the drivers for that, it turns out it worked perfectly, I then installed my HD6850 into another computer where it worked until I installed the drivers.
