Hello everyone, in the past few weeks i've had a few crashes in windows 8.1 and crashes+BSOD in windows 10. in windows 8.1 i've had this sudden black screen for a second whether i was playing a game or not, the screen went black for a second and then got back to normal. in windows 10, which is my current os, i'm having in addition to this crashes, a BSOD at least once a day regardless if i was playing a game or just doing a regular stuff on my pc. All of them are labeld with the string "THREAD STUCK IN DEVICE DRIVER" while some of them caused by fvevol.sys and the others by dxgkrnl.sys.
Another thing, and this is a weird one, is that despite the fact i set the os to power off the screen after 10 minutes, the screen stayes turn on forever, evethough i don't touch my pc in any way.
So, what i did for now is to take out my gpu and put it in my brother's pc which is almost the same as mine (except his gpu,but it doesn't matter), and i ,as for the moment, work with the built-in gpu, which seems to be stable for now. Anyway, its been a few hours since i put my gpu in my brother's pc and so far so good! we played gta v and watchdogs on the highest graphic settings and everything is just fine.
My thought is that the gpu is fine, and since the problems happend before and after i updated the driver, i don't think its the problem either. My fears is that it is something related to my PSU, so i'm asking you, if there is any thing that you suggest me to do or check before i send the pc to a lab (cause i really, really don't want to do that, obviously)
my pc specs are:
intel i5-4590 3.3 Ghz
GIGABYTE H87-HD3 motherboard
SAPPHIRE r9-280x vapor-x 3gb ddr5 oc edition
16gb ram 1600 Mhz
1tb HDD WESTERN DIGITAL
RAIDER 650W psu
windows 10 X64 home edition
thanks for the patient and please help me as far as you can
