Hello,
I post this because I have made no progress in solving the problem myself. Basicly when playing games (or ideling on desktop less commonly) the display will freeze and after 2 secounds go back, now from here it does one of three things:
1. Screen remains black (and sound sometimes loops) untill I Ctrl, Alt, Delete.
2. Screen stays black even after Ctrl ALt Delete and sometimes (more offten with source games tbc) changes the size of the window and has to be closed through task manager.
3. Freezes totally and I have to do a hard shutdown. After I do this it gives me the option to start in safe mode, if I dont Windows fails to boot and I am offered system repair. This always fails and I have to do a system image restore.
I used to have a Geforce GTX 460 and it happened then, recently I got a GTX 560 Ti CUII (thinking this would solve the problem, it didnt)
After hunting round I found that it may be a Windows TDR problem but thats as far as I got noone knew how to get around that and after some one said this most threads decended in insults and guff.
Any help greatly appreciated.
