    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    Let's just ignore the argument with that one fella. You say god almighty high cpu temps, but I did post temps with the performance setting turned off, are those still too high as well? I know I sound like Dr. House in trying to diagnose this but It does point to certain things. It ran for...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    So I'm still having this problem. I'm still messing around with drivers and stuff since I posted this and have had no luck. Still without flash. Now all the sudden the other day, Silverlight VIA Netflix caused me to crash. What's weird was I was watching netflix earlier that day and ever since...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    I'll check into it and run some tests. So far though, I have confirmed it's Flash player. It won't crash with it uninstalled. I just don't know what it's conflicting with. I've tried different combinations of older flash/newer nvidia driver, older nvidia driver/older flash, ect. But I can't...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    Again telling me shit I already know, like I'm some toddler. Performance mode isn't the issue. It's been running with it from day one. I'm pretty well fine without ya bud. Thanks for nothing. Hope you're not in the IT world with your approach to assisting, or the people you help wouldn't be...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    Ok now I may sound like a bit of a prick; you're not reading my posts. -First of all, I installed a bran new Corsair TX850 several days ago. -Performance IS on, and has been since I assembled this build, I don't imagine it's my issue. I explained the before and after, even gave nice screen...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    I reset the BIOS last night and then ran Memtest86 from a USB for 6hours and 17mins to complete the full test with no errors. I just ran the latest Furmark with settings upped a bit for 15 mins and it would not exceed 86C and did not crash or even skip a beat. Just ran Prime95 for 45 mins...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    Sorry dude, Not sure where you got negativity from my post but in no way was I aiming anything at you guys, it's just me ranting because i'm losing my mind lol. I greatly appreciate your help! This restart is neither of what you mentioned; i'll be browsing in firefox then boom, whole computer...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    Well as I was typing this up, it hard crashed and restarted....... Guna lose it. Installed 334.89. Obviously worse as the earlier one didn't hard crash, just locked up. I'm going to go back to 296.10 like a bunch of people had to do in 2010 as my research showed. Long shot but I'm basically...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    To me that doesn't make sense, I'm just confused though and don't know anything about drivers or whatever fermi is. Either way, She LOCKED UP this morning again as soon as I started a facebook video. FFS. Tried looking up 331.93 beta and it's only for GTX 460 "M" (mobile). So I'm not going to...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    I did that this morning after refreshing this thread and so far so good but I won't know for a couple days if it's a sure thing. I did a proper full clean and reinstall. And if it is a sure thing, what do I do to fully fix it? Wait for the next nvidia driver update and try it at that point but...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    Unbelievable. Starting to lose my shit here. No problems all yesterday on the 8800GT but today within the first 10 minutes of firing it up, it locked up while watching facebook video. Starting to really wonder about the drivers being the culprit. Screw the latest drivers. I just don't know how...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    Honestly, when I think about when I last updated, it could have been damn close to when these issues started. My memory sucks though so I can't say for sure.

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    Yes but only for a day, with how random the crashes are I cannot confirm or deny that it made a difference. I'm on the 8800GT for 3 hours now with no issues so far. Guys, What are the odds that my Corsair HX 520W psu caused damage to this gtx460? I was doing some searching and came across...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    Well damn. It was going smoothly, I was going to wait 2 more days and report in saying it was fixed but I just had my first "full power off" crash since I installed the new PSU on Friday. Now I'm kinda pissed. Possibly video card then? Motherboard, CPU, and ram is only 6 months old. Operating...

    GTX 460 possibly causing hard system crashes?

    Ya that's not the case with my issue, it does a hard "power off" crash. Not one blue screen or anything along those lines yet. Bought me a Corsair TX850M so I'll let you guys know the results. Hate people that abandon a thread with no solution, everyone in the future searching for that...
