This happen a few months ago and sudden stop and return this morning . When I log in the com after 30 secs the com will start to go black and will say display driver stop responding and has recovered . It will happen a few times till it have blue screen .
*Methods I tried*
1. I download the old version of the nivdia driver 314.22
doesnt help still same thing
2. I update to latest version still cant
3. Used driver unistall fron guru3b still cant
4. Tried reinstalling windows as I might be software problem but the display kenny mode driver stop responding .

Should I just bring it for warranty ? I see alot people with this problem might be too much dust in computer ane cause over heating . Help thanksA

Edit : i clear the external part of the computer to get rid some dust . restart and finished the windows 7 reinstall now still can run . i didnt update the driver as i looked around forums and found that the new versions might be causing the problems. should i send for warranty ?

Some possible cause. Have you overclocked your card?

Check your fans are they working? Are they moving?

Try resit your gpu.

If all else fails then most probably you got to send in to rma.

Bump need help from expert. Also mine is build in com from acer

is your com still under warrarnty? if yes send for servicing. if no then here are a few steps

boot up in safe mode and try to reinstall the driver.

swap for another GPU (if u hv a spare) doesnt need to be powerful, juz need to test if its the GPU problem

lastly if ur pc is more than 1 yr, high chance is the power supply. desktop manufacturers like acer and HP often skimp on the power supply giving just enough power to the pc (ie if ur pc need 250W, they give u 250W PSU). if u read up u will know PSU power output decrease with usage due to capacitor aging so by 1 yr maybe drop to 230W which is not enough.
