Hello, thx for helping BTW.

Ok, I was playing and suddenly the screen went pink and system crash (while pink screen). I reboot system and after the logo (Win7) system crash. Went to safety mode, uninstall driver and can enter to the system. Install driver and crash. Install new system (Win8) and crash on installing driver.
Try it on different PCI, and the same. Can't try an old graphics card because MOBO show problem "b2" that should be fixed with clear CMOS but nothing happen. I don't know what to do. I think the problem is the graphics card and want to buy a new one, but if is not??
I don't know what to do, I think I try everything... Please help.

My system specs:
MOBO: ASUS Crosshair V Formula Z
CPU: AMD FX 8350
GPU: ASUS HD 7850 2GB
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2x4GB 1600Mhz
PSU: Corsair HX1050
SSD: Kingston HyperX Savage 240GB

Thanks again for your time.

Look, first of all disconnect your graphic card and try to connect another card if you have one even if it's old card and then if it will work I you can be sure and come to conclusion if it's the card or not.
But yes the card may be dying.

I mentioned before, tried a Radeon HD 5670 but MOBO show error message "b2", always stock on that so practicaly can't try it. Doesn't have another PC and probably I'm the only one PC gamer of my town lol.

Yes, also the error says in manual: "Legacy Option ROM Initialization". I read to clear CMOS but didn't work. But always show that error and can't enter to system, even BIOS. Only with the old GPU.

Seems like your motherboard might be broken rip had nearly the same issue on my other board I though the it was the cpu turns out my motherboard died on me, if you still have a valid warranty try contact Asus

I thought the same, but different errors on different GPUs (¿?). And the system crash only with the driver installed. If not the system goes well. For now, my only options are to buy another GPU, try it and if doesn't work, wait to buy new MOBO and everything else. It's a little old but I'll found out later. Perhaps take me a little to buy the GPU, but trust me I will keep you updated. Thanks for the help to everyone.
