Recently after intalled the 344 drivers, my machine kept crashing at odd times (during playing or even after just 1 minute of doing nothing at start up)

So after many attempt to erase drivers and install old ones the issue didn't change and I bought a new drive card.

Now the problem is that I am unable to make work this card after installing the new drivers.

Every time that I attempt to run Windows with the new gtx 770 and some drivers that recognise the card, after windows start, and it log and lunch, after a split second of seeing the desktop working it crash.

I have no fucking idea of what to do, I tried many things, and none of it solved the issue.

What could be the problem that lead to the crash?

That's why i said test, you can take it to the shop so they can test your components on another system, buying a new power supply and hoping it is the problem is a 50/50 chance of you either wasting your money or fixing your problem.

1469-FUENTE 750W PSP PFC ACTIVO COOLERMASTER

Fuente is Power in spanish...

My only doubt is that the GTX 570 and the GTX 770 have different size for plugging PCI-E1, and PCI-E2 (the size is just inverted... GTX 570 has 8 and 6 holes, while the other has 6 and 8 holes), so I am not sure if I am inverting or not the right position of those cables...

This happened to two graphic cards, one lasted long maybe because it required less power. This may mean that your power supply is starting to fail you. You could go ahed and try to RMA the power supply, or faster lend a power supply from a friend to test, the 770 requires a good quality 600W psu.

I don't have at the moment any of those options... thank you for your help, I really really appreciate it. I might need to buy a new part of the computer that I was hoping not to do right now.

I still doubt that is the power supply, why it would work for the GTX 550? The error that I was having with that card was quite random and it all started from new driver installations of NVIDIA.

But anyway... I'll test and think about all the possibilities.
