Good day,

The problem I'm experiencing is that the graphics card has stopped working according to Windows. I picked this up after playing Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor for a total of 15 hours over the past 2 days. The game experienced some frame rate stutter yesterday for around 20 seconds every 2 hours or so.

> Removing drivers in safe mode using display driver uninstaller (DDU).
> Reinstalling the latest NVIDIA drivers.
> Restored Windows to an earlier date before the latest Windows updates were applied.
> Formatted and reinstalled Windows.
> Removed the battery and let it stand for 30 minutes.

All of these routes have amounted to nothing. I'm unsure what else I can do to see if there are perhaps other error codes or diagnostics I can run on the card. I am also tempted to load Linux onto my external and see if the card works in Linux.

If you most helpful members of TH can help, that would be great.

Regards,

XennoX

What I was afraid of. I have contacted MSI Support in the meanwhile to see what they can do for me.
