So, explaining as simply as possible, my computer worked fine one day, then I turned it on the next and windows started crashing several seconds after a normal boot up. Except this crash turned the fan of my graphics card up to 100%, disabling my keyboard, mouse and screen, leaving me with the only option of resetting the computer.

After a little bit of trying and retrying, one time i tried booting the comp up and windows wouldnt even boot anymore. My SSD completely disappeared. After booting into win 7 on another HD, I was able to fix the SSD automatically through some windows disk cheker system. I wiped the SSD and reinstalled win 8. After the format, win 8 worked fine with no graphics driver installed. the moment i enable the driver, it crashes and does the fan thing all over again. Booting into safe mode, i can disable the driver and it wont crash.

Funny thing is, the next day i turn on my computer, and the SSD doesnt want to boot win 8 again. All it does is blink a cursor on the top left part of the screen until i reset and boot into the other HD with win 7.

so thats my problem.......

Motherboard MSI MS-7673
Intel i5-2500k 3.30Ghz 4 core
Win 8.1 64bit
Geforce GTX780 Ti (no OC)

damn that sounds serious, i am completely lost as what to say, maybe MOBO? all your fans at 100% sounds really weird, if the PSU can't supply enough power it would shut down not do all that weird stuff, can you install an older version of the driver? look into Nvidia's website or in google for older versions and see if it works, also try using only your HDD if you can, so i can tell you if the SSD is the one causing problems
I will be following this thread on any reply and reply asap, hope i can be of help
 
Since the system works fine on base VGA drivers it is very likely the video card. Test it in another system if you can. It may be the power supply as well, but testing the card in another system would quickly help to sort out where the issue may be from.
