just want to see if anyone else has this issue and if there's a fix or something. very recently my graphics card (im assuming since it seems like the most likely suspect) keeps crashing with the audio and video stuttering out followed by my monitor shutting off because it doesnt detect a signal. doesn't seem to matter if im running a game or not, it happened while i was asleep and nothing was running. i've tried searching everywhere but either its only me having this problem or im searching for the wrong thing.

im using a gtx 760 with driver version 334.89. also checked my temperatures and they are totally fine around the time when it crashes. and as far as i know there are no error logs to check because of the nature of this kind of crash, but i could be wrong.

really? i just bought this card like two months ago and it's worked 100% fine until this morning. im convinced this is a software issue.

feel free to do so, but it's dead. i put up with exactly what you described for one year. within that year I reformatted four times, used dozens of drivers, did every "fix" on google with remotely the same problem, ect. then I remembered I had an old graphics card in the garage, so I put that in and played with it for a week. Not a single crash (when it would crash twice a day every day for me without fail). I put in my old graphic cards, crashed. but if you can figure out how to fix it without getting a new card, please tell me. that means I can sell my old card without feeling like a douche for selling a broken product.

purchased a new card, no crashes.
