Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and was recovered. (Hardware in the end)
That is the issue im dealing with. I got a second hand pc and Not in a position to argue or cry about it but I seem to have this issue. At first I thought it was the cpu heating up because the crashes wouldnt tell me what they were, so i added thermal paste. Temps dropped but it still kept happening where my pc would just simply crash and and id have to keep installing drivers. Second I thought it must be the HDD so I changed that too. Still didnt help.
Now Im left with just the gpu and I opened that up and applied thermal paste on there as well but didnt help. Still crashes. Yesterday it crashed after an hour, now it crashes in 3 seconds on any graphics. Even MsI Kombustor test.
Here is where it gets tricky, When I tried putting my gpu in my friend's pc, it ran ALLL well for HOURS.
Put his AMD GPU in my PC, still ran perfectly fine.
So what us the issue ? Is it my GPU or what ? Could it be the PSU but if it was how could it be that his gpu which is an AMD 4gb one (forgot which exactly) ran fine ?
Could it be because Im using My TV as My monitor with HDMI ?
Anyways, my hardware;
MOBO: Asus Z87 Sabretooth
CPU: Intel I7 4thGen 3.50ghz
Ram: HyperX 8gb ram. + 1 more kingston 8gb ram (forgot the name)
Gpu: Evga geforce gtx780 3Gb
PSU: Coolermaster 1050W Gold rated.
SSD: Kingston 120gb
HDD: Barracuda 2tb 7200rpm
Os: Windows 10
Also, I know some people have fixed this by reducing memory and core clock; Ive tried that and it didnt work.
