Hello. My psu is Mission 550w(1x6pinn)
2x4gb ddr3 1600mhz
MB - msi a68hm-e33 v2
Gtx 560ti
Cpu a6-7400
Ssd120gb
Hdd 250gb

I tried installing win 10 a few times and now i got win 8.1.
Whenever i installed nvidia driver after first flshing during the instalation it keeps the black screen so im forced to restart pc then enter safe mode through repair guide windows offers. I delete drivers mannualy and the same thing happens when i install driver from 2013/2015 and the latest. Also one strange thing happened, i deinstalled driver and restarted pc, pc came up with driver and automaticlly resized resolution as it should be and i stress tested it and played dota 2 on high resolution. Pc did very fine. Also just because drivers werent installed completely, i wanted to install it as it should be installed and had the same problem again..i connected one 6 pin to gpu and the other made with 2xmolex>6 pin adapter..any help please? Im really pissed off..have spent 9 hours solving this......

Going to a HIGHER wattage/amperage power supply should not cause GPU instability. If it doesn't work on a different PSU then that PSU is to blame and possibly has issues. The graphics card is compatible with your motherboard and should work in Windows 10 as nVIDIA has drivers to make it work in Windows 10 properly. I've got nVIDIA 200 series cards working with Windows 10 just fine. You eliminated drivers so if changing the PSU doesn't help then the card is probably dying. It seems to stop working as soon as drivers are loaded which points to the card.

Is the Windows 10 installation complete? Are you using Windows 10 or Windows 8 right now?

After using DDU+restart, the PC should boot into regular Windows Windows in low resolution mode using a VGA driver built into Windows. The graphics card does not need a driver at all for you to get picture. Once you are in Windows in low resolution mode, download nVIDIA autodetect and have it fetch a driver for you. Select only the display driver and Physx, leave everything else, and run the installer. Screen flashing is normal. Reboot the machine and see if you can get back into Windows.

It is not the problem to remove old driver. Sinply whichever driver i install it gives black screen after win logo. Ive tried win 10/8 and now 7 and i also tried ubuntu so i realized the problem is about graphic card. I also updated bios. When it flashes the first time it remains black and doesnt give picture. I also tried to instal only driver from nvidia installer. It is always the same whatever i install. The interesting thing is that on win 10 i think i uninstalled driver through safe mode and restarted pc. Driver reinstalled at its own and it worked!! I tried to repeat that situation because that half installed driver was doing really fine(games on high res, stress test).

Windows 10 can automatically download and install nVIDIA drivers through Windows update. Sometimes these are older but more stable. You can't half install a driver also; either it's there or it's not. The issue is either the driver or the graphics card. Newest drivers sometimes have problems.

I installed drivers from 2013,2015, 2017 and 2018 and also ive let windows update it. The same thing happend. Im about the gpu is broken or not compatible. Something strange is happeing. Maybe i should mention it worked with psu 450w 22A on 12V. Then switched to 550w 36w-12V and finally cooler master 600w 47A-12v. So it worked on 22A and maybe that caused gpu's desease.
