Hello Sysnative community,
recently(since 2014 May 26th to be precise) I have started experiencing problems related with my display/graphics card. At first it started as a "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" message(and of course a GPU crash), however as days passed on, it became a blue screen of death as well. In order to solve this problem I tried methods such as extending the TDR timer to re-installing windows 8.1 and moving on to windows 7 and doing a clean driver sweep. However, none of these software tweaks seemed to help.
Since none of the software tweaks seemed to help, I suspect that hardware is to blame, therefore I would like to know which part of my notebook is responsible for this(as it might be either faulty GPU or faulty RAM or something else even). The problem usually occurs when there is heavy load caused by applications(specifically Counter Strike: Global Offensive), however the GPU would crash as well when loading up Spotify(however, it would not go to BSoD). Also, what I have noticed is that the GPU crash happens(leading to BSoD) when I would physically move either notebook screen or the notebook itself, probably assuring that hardware is to blame. Need to know which component is causing problems, so that I could use my warranty and replace it. Thank your for your help in advance!
