Random graphics issues with W10 and GF760GTX

Hi, I have this issue since W10 creators update and a couple of months after having my new monitor or an approximate date....

Here is my detailed issue:
https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/1016011/no-signal-gtx760

Anyway I will write here too, a summary.

My monitor say "not signal" or do Sawtooth when I start a game, but not ever, its radomly.
I check this with tomb raider (2013), fallout 4, pay day2, chyvalry: mediaval warfare (in full screen, in windows mode no issues, but I never play in windows mode).
So I think that game not matter.

What has happened to me recently is this:

The other day when nvidia experience was updating drivers the monitor always blinks by a second, it's a normal behaviour usually. But as I said, the other day after this blink didn't return to normal appearance but again get this appearance (Sawtooth):

- Just now Im playing to Arma3 and I did tab to desktop, and again I get this (Sawtooth):

If I turn off and turn on my monitor then show a message in black screen saying not signal found, can only be reset with the reset button in my tower.

This is my system info updated at 07/31/2017:

I discard a cable fail, only occur when there are a display change. Im thinking between driver or nvidia experience software, my monitor have 6 months.
Thanks by the answer, Im waiting for next fail to check if issue persist (random issue make hard localize the source of the problem).

Ok, with official drivers of gigabyte 384.76 I got the issue yesterday.
All are working right, but last night I run a game named Call to arms (this confirm that no matter the game) I got again the issue, I can interact as normal, but the image is very distorted, my screen have Sawtooth. Then I changed from Display port to hdmi and no source signal was displayed in monitor, same thing when I chage from hdmi to DVI. Then the game showed an error (Its the first time that it happens to me) after this error monitor was showing the screen correctly but with low resolution. I attach the error message.

But if I change the graphics card could not discard driver problems if the card is different using different drivers. (I do not have another PCI express card either).

I will uninstall nvidia experience (thinking that all the faults have been when starting the games or one when updating driver during the change from one driver to another.)

Today it happened again, I had a video playing in the browser and when I ran arma3, the screen showed sawtooth, I changed the resolution in the game, with difficulty for not looking good, then the monitor showed the message: "no signal ", and the audio of the browser video was stopped. After a while the system restarted

I don't have issues with power supply, I mean, when it works well most of the time and with demanding games, even in summer where here temperatures of 47º - 117ºF are reached, I have not had any problems.

I will comment on any progress. Thanks!

Hi, Im back with updates, I find a temporal fix, seems that issue its related with a change of resolution that happen some times when a game is started.
The fix is:
1. Go to configuration
2.display
3.change the resolution (the images are after the fix, when you proceed to solve the problem you have to intuit the options because everything is with saw teeth.)

4.wait for countdown to revert changes.

Its a bug from nvidia or windows 10?

After update w10 1803 (v.17134.376) october update when monitor go to sleep after can't wake up without error

I take a capture with nvidia experience, curiously capture is right but my screen was like the previous ones decomposed
 


Without being able to rule out the video card you will be just going back and forth between possible things. You tried different drivers correct? Not much else you can without trying another card or testing yours in another system. Can try a clean Windows setup, different cables, different outputs on the card, try with another monitor.

Thanks hang-the-9

With the last patch of nvidia 416.94 that came out a few days after the previous 416.81, now I no longer pass the fault when the screen goes to sleep. but I also received another small update on windows 10 after the big one in October.

It's crazy, drivers, w10, the monitor, I think there's a relationship between them. But as you said without being able to test another graphic card and that it is a failure that happens randomly it does not make it possible to find the fault quickly.

So seems that w10 october update broke it (the fail in monitor going to sleep) or 416.81 nvidia patch, I don't sure. And 416.94 or small w10 patch fixed it.
At least that failure always happened. I do not know if the other fault will return, the random one when starting a game. I'll keep trying things.

Thanks hang-the-9.
