Hi guys
I have been receiving some issues from my graphics card GTX 760.
My PC has not been responding well with display drivers stopped responding and then recovered again. I have uninstall and reinstall the latest drivers and the problem still persist.
What can I do?
Is it the problem had to do with PSU or Graphics card? My overall rig is 4 years old with PSU closer to 5 years old. Graphics card changed 2 years ago so still relatively new I guess??

Try reinstalling an older knowntobestable driver.

Also try underclocking to see if the problem will be solved

New update my computer doesn't boot into the windows screen now. It only boots to the windows 7 loading part and then just suddenly turns black screen. I have tried installing older version of drivers but problem still the same.

Unfortunately there isn't a spare gpu lying around.. Any other ways to identify the problem?? Or should I just go ahead and buy a new GPU?

TS it may not be the drivers or the gpu .. i used to have an old rig and this problem occurred after installing drivers number above 347.88 .. i tried 3 different cards GTX 680, GTX 980 and GTX 980 Ti and ALL have the same non-responding drivers. After i built a new pc, no more such issue. i suspect it could be my PSU, after all it is a 4 year old antec 650w

Mine same thing with 970 as well. Always black screen after update.

Download DDU and clean uninstall from there. Download the GPU driver directly from Nvidia website and do clean install.

Got use DDU or not?
If not the problem might be bigger.
If recurring I rather you do a clean windows installation.

Sorry for really late reply. I have tried DDU and install fresh drivers 353.38 and it's still the same...
Could it be the problem had to do with Power Supply?
