So i built it in march of 2015. Built it for ESO and for fun, first build and terrible experience so far. it crashes in chrome internet explorer. "alice the madness returns" a game i got off steam. and now just recently on ESO. just those things it seems. total war games are fine, skyrim is fine. on highest settings.
gigabyte sent me a replacement card while mine is currently being checked/worked on, and i still have crashes. ive lost count on how many times ive reset my OS win 7 64. i tried win 10 and its not helping. yess i went to amd's website and installed drivers but not 100% if they installed correctly and idk how to check if chipset drivers are installed.
i found this file "report" notepad file in start search while i was looking for event viewer. has a list of hardware and drivers and i noticed on the section labeled-System Devices-just like in device manager all drivers are N/A it says. idk if this means anything, everything else i cant make sense of. Event viewer i cant make sense of either has a bunch of errors that come up Just before the Hardboot critical but i dont know wat they are...Also whe i look at event viewer some warnings i noticed say that drivers failed to install because of policy. again no idea wat this means or how to fix it...
anyways ive swapped the Vcard to a different PCI slot, no help ive swapped RAM to different slot, bought a liquid cooler for my CPU, wiped all Video drivers reinstalled them. sensors read just under 30* for CPU and MB
I ran Furmark CPU&GPU burner for 15 min and it wont crash but if i try to do petty stuff like web browse or play ESO in low settings it will crash.
so since hardware is the easiest thing for me to deal with i guess my next step is buying a new motherboard? I would realy hate too if this one isnt bad. unless gigabyte sent me a bad Replacement i dont think the Graphics card is the issue.
so anyways HELLP!!
