Hello everyone,
i have quite some problems with my PC and im at the end with of my knowledge.
My PC has been acting up since a couple of months and i haven't used him because of that for quite some time now. But now i wanted to play some games again so i tried finding that problem, but since i'm not the best at finding these i might need your help.
My guess is that the GC is damaged. Maybe i should give you a little bit of backstory and info about the components:
OS: Win7 Ultimate 64 Bit
GC: Nvidia Gforce XFX GTS 250
CPU: Intel R Core Duo E8500 @3.16 Ghz
Motherboard: No idea anymore, don't know how to check since i couldn't find it
RAM: 4GB
I have no CD Drive since it broke a couple years ago.
So i usually only played League of Legends and Rocket League, but 6 months back my friends and I decided we'd try out Diablo 3. It was working quite nicely with no problems whatsoever. But a couple weeks into this game, when the final cutscene played from the final boss (Which looked really like a resource heavy cutscene tbh) i got a Blue Screen, my very first one ever too.
Cutscenes didn't play too fluently anyways on this PC, the same goes for 1080p on 60 FPS for YT videos.
After the first Blue Screen, everything went downhill pretty much. My PC constantly froze when trying to do things that'd be resource heavy and such. When trying to use FireFox my PC would crash and/or get a Blue Screen. For some odd reason, Google Chrome works just fine and i can even watch Videos in HD with Chrome.
Trying to start Rocket League (Pretty much the only game i'd play) it gets loaded up into the menu and then decide to randomly get screen glitches (Distortions, weird looking color patterns singlely scattered around the screen) and then just crash into a Blue Screen.
Now, i don't know wether it is the GC or not. I have a old Gigabyte GC lying here which i will try to insert now and see if it works, not too sure tho if it's compatible with my Motherboard but we'll see.
Could it be that my GC got damaged while playing a resource heavy cutscene?
Is it just that it's overheating or maybe because it is too old?
Screws that are stuck behind the MB?
Btw this PC is like 6-7 years old so i'm not too sure if it's worth trying to revive this Zombie anyways...
Thanks in advance !
