Hello, as of Sunday, I built a new PC and it was working great until Monday night when all of a sudden Windows refuses to recognize the already installed drivers for my gtx970. Perplexed, I reinstall several times through geforce app and directly to no avail. I wipe everything Nvidia from the computer and start from scratch and sure enough it works....for a day. Yesterday afternoon I try playing a game and get a hard crash, have to reboot out of it. Sure enough when it boots back on, I check the display driver and it's back to Windows generic.
At this point, I think Windows is at fault and I reinstall it from scratch. Install geforce app and drivers, everything looks good. Then I play a game and get a light blue screen of death. Try to reinstall drivers and get a green screen of death. Anyways, my question is did my card go bad somewhere down the line? I only bought it in October of last year and have not overclocked it. I'm going to try to install my old AMD card to see if that works. Please anyone feel free to offer insight into my problem, thanks.
