When I install a game (I have tried farcry 4, civ 5, mafia II etc), with the first startup the game (or steam) installs some DirectX components. After that I get to play the game and there's not any problem with that, all games run just fine. But when I shut the computer down and start it again the login window appear normal, but after logging in, only gray screen with a cursor shows. I have waited like 10 min but nothing happens. Only way to get the Windows working again is to restore Windows. I have also reinstalled Windows but the same problem still occurs. I have the latest driver for my Graphics card and latest Windows updates. I have contacted my retailer and they say it is propably a Graphics card malfunction. For me it sounds more like a software problem than a hardware problem but anything doesn't seem to fix it.
I appreciate your help!
