Title: Graphics driver quitting, and weird sound distortion.
Post by: dustynana on September 04, 2015, 01:39:41 PM
I installed windows 10 on launch day and for a couple weeks everything was fine. Now once every couple days i get this weird sound distortion and the screen goes black and then the only thing i can do is hit the reset button on my case. Everything starts up like normal and i can even go back to playing the game most of the time(this only happens when i'm in the middle of a game). Sometimes i just get frame drops that make the game stutter Until i restart my computer but that doesn't work all the time either. other times when i'm in a skype call with friends or something, and this happens, those that i'm in the call with get a loud static noise from me. And the last symptom is that i keep getting the message, graphics driver not responding or graphics driver quitting(something along those lines). I really hope this is just a problem with windows 10.
