I'm writing this on behalf of a friend who has been having some issues recently with his computer. His screen is showing a white pixels across the screen (Image bellow) recently apparently it just happened out the blue.
So the stuff I know is that he his PC is relevantly new and was built early February 2016(System spec bellow) and he uses it for mainly playing games and watching Youtube. When he fist go the issue he restarted his computer and after 15 mins of just watching some Youtube it happened again. I spoke to him over the phone he said an Nvidia message came up but was unable to read it due to the amount of white pixels. We tried using a different monitor which just resulted in the same issue so I was led the believe that It was not the monitor I looked for some solutions and tried uninstalling the latest Nvidia drivers in windows safe mode via the uninstall programs feature in the control panel. That all the information I have so far apologies if this rather lacking but my friend is not very tech savy so it would best that I post on his behalf.
Specs:
Intel Core i5-4460 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
MSI Z97-GAMING 5 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
