• GTX670 - Windows won't boot if Drivers are installed?
    4 replies, posted
Hey guys, I got my pc a couple of months ago. Everything has been great, no issues at all. One day, out of the blue, the screen goes black and reboots. It gets to the windows screen and locks up. I reboot in safe mode and eventually find out its the my GTX670 drivers causing it. If they are installed the pc locks up at the windows screen. When they aren't installed, it boots fine. I've tried reinstalling (and cleaning Nvidia away) and reinstalling the latest drivers. Still doesn't work. Anyone suggest anything? (posting this from safe mode)
Have you tried earlier or beta drivers? What are your full specs including PSU?
[QUOTE=Shadaez;39343669]Have you tried earlier or beta drivers? What are your full specs including PSU?[/QUOTE] I've tried the most up to date drivers on NVidia's website. And my PSU is a 750w. Everything boots fine and has done for months. I can get back onto normal windows if the driver is uninstalled. No idea what to do.
Sometimes windows reverts to its own version of the driver or its own driver which may still play games, you should see if your games still run without the driver

Edit: Reinstalling drivers fails on some parts. Windows also detects a driver issue and tries to install a gpu driver, which also fails. Is the GPU dead?
