Hello,
I just upgraded my HD Radeon 7700 1GB GPU to the Nvidia GTX1050ti, and it would restart my computer often. I cleared all old driver with DDU and my BIOS is up to date. The GPU is on the latest driver as well. I was able to play games and do regular stuff at one point, but my computer would restart randomly. Usually it would happen within a couple minutes of turning on my computer and when it does happen, it would happen back to back for about 4+ times. I put my old GPU in to make sure nothing is wrong with my computer, and once I installed the old GPU in, it worked perfectly.
I did notice that when I do have the GTX1050ti in the system and go into Device Manager and disable the driver of the GPU, and the computer would run fine without restarting, but noticed that motion and things are not smooth because its running on a driver that Windows downloaded. From that, I am assuming that it has to be the driver. I might have missed something, but wanted to ask everyone on any ideas that would help me. Thanks!
UPDATE It restarts less often now. When it does restart, its usually 5-10 seconds after EXITING a game or closing the web browser after watching Netflix or so. I can play for 4+ hours of Overwatch or any other game without it restarting until I EXIT the game.
