After a few hours of playing games, my pc displayed the error "display driver has stopped working and successfully recovered." The temperatures are around 40-50 degrees, pretty normal really. My cpu (i5 7400) is around 40 degrees too, although it did pop into the 50's.
Since it isn't the temperatures, I'm really not sure what it could be. I've edited the power settings from adaptive to prefer high performance. My CPU isn't compatible with windows 7 (windows likes to remind me everytime I load into my pc...) So i'm upgrading to windows 10. I've already got a code etc, so it's not like I'm paying a lot for it.
Do you think this incompatibility with windows 7 could be the cause of my issues or do you think it may be the graphics card? I'm grasping at straws here, and since I've just bought this pc for around £400, buying a new graphics card isn't really an option.
