Installed Nvidia latest driver package which also black screened at reboot. So WUD, Asus and Nvidia drivers are not stable for the Nvidia 310 Switchable graphics.
Web searches show previous problems with overheating when that kicks in.
So the choice is to keep searching for a stable driver or disable the device in Device Manager to test performance overall without it. I'd do both.
Okay the screen is black yet again. Im going to restart it and then click start normally
Screen went black again after the 3rd attempted update with the nvidia driver. I then just rebooted and just disabled the nvidia driver.
Thank you to greg for helping me out with this.
So most likely my nvidia driver the internal just have problems or it has overheatting which could be the reason for this.
However, he also installed heating program in the computer to check temperature but it doesnt seem to be heating issue.
The card has a web history of this same behavior on your model. It may be accessible from door underneath to reseat, replace or remove if it causes issues - doors are shown in Manual but nothing about card or switchable graphics except in Specs and complaints.
See if Intel is adequate. Seems snappy so far. Watch closely.
Yes i will have the computer cleaned soon as in the cleaning dust and ask if there is a misplacement of it as well.
