Hi,

My computer won't boot when I have the drivers installed for my graphics card. I've tried it with 3 different GPU's, a 7990 HD radeon, a 7950 HD radeon and a GTX 670. All the same problem

I've also tried it with two different PSU's, same problem.

The computer boots up fine with the GPU plugged in as long as drivers are not installed. As soon as they are installed, it will fail to reboot into windows ever again, until a windows restore is done to undo the graphics driver install.

I have several other identical computers with the same hardware, software, and same drivers, those work. This one too worked for ages but after a recent format it stopped working and now does this every time.

I've also tried old versions and new versions of the graphics driver.

I'm lost at what to do. Having tried 3 different GPU's and two PSU's and still no resolution.What could it be?

Have you actually checked if you are even downloading the right drivers for the correct OS?
