Hmm, no Primary Graphics Adapter setting?

Hmm, no Primary Graphics Adapter setting?

The setting you linked me to is regarding the North Bridge configuration. When I press the NBC button, nothing happens.

 

[LeetZero]

All right, apparently I don't need to click anywhere on the item, it's better off to press enter... I am on on board now. Should I try to initiate a crash / something that would normally crash me?

 

[Arc]

Now we have to observe how it is working with onboard graphics. If it is kinda stable (may be we may need to update the intel graphics driver at a max), we may conclude that it is a GPU failing.

 

[Britton30]

Good job, you'll need to put your monitor cable on the VGA connector on the motherboard.

Already did that. I have been on the onboard since the post. Also updated the Intel drivers which I never had.
The on-board succeeded in not crashing on a game the external crashed...

 

[LeetZero]

So, I guess it's a GPU failure?

 

[Arc]

Yes, it indicates that.

If the GPU is under warranty, RMA it, otherwise replace it with a new one.

 

[LeetZero]

Actually, despite that game working now I received those things, while on the Intel integrated :s.
The thing is that it still says it's an NVIDIA... but yet I don't have it plug in.

 

[Arc]

Remove nvidia drivers from the system.

• Uninstall All nvidia items in Control Panel > Programs and features
  • 3D Vision Control Driver
  • 3D Vision Driver
  • Graphics Driver
  • HD Audio Driver
  • PhysX
  • nvidia Update
  (Are you using nvidia chipset drivers? If so, dont uninstall anything other than those are listed).
• Now follow Drivers - Clean Left over Files after Uninstalling ,uninstall all the leftovers of nvidia.

Now let the computer run. Observe if it is crashing any more or not.

I also thing your GPU is defective. Using the Intel HD2000 graphics may cause some freezes and lags, even crashes, it wasn't meant for much gaming. It is hand to use for trouble shooting though.

Then how am I supposed to test it for GPU issues if it crashes on games either way?

@Arc: I'll do that and try again.

I have had now completely removed the Nvidia driver. Though when I went back on it was like "Nvidia GTX 460 ready for use"... I will try to play the same game that crashed me beforehand on the IGPU. If it fails I'll generate another full dump log thing.

 

[Arc]

Onboard graphics is not for gaming actually. It is to use when the GPU is not stable, or with non- gaming computers.

From the instances, I strongly guess that the GPU is failing; but Britton30 will guide you better at that.

 

[Britton30]

You can try the GPU card to see if it causes lags or crashes without gaming for a couple of days. Viewing videos is a good way to put some lower type stress on it or the Intel graphics.

Ok.
I am on my GPU now. I actually did game today. No game crashed me up. When I attempted to play Dear Esther it worked fine. At a moment, the game began lagging the hell out, the next second it was fine. Eventually alt+f4'd because I didn't want to have another GPU crash, though it would be the only game that actually lagged before anything happened, and I did let it lag for 1 minute. I am going to keep my gaming on low. Even if it crashed before on Little Inferno (which works just fine on the IGPU), the IGPU was the one that crashed on Awesomenauts (the crash log which I posted before), playing Awesomenauts now on the GPU works perfectly. Lagless, crashless. Also played Capsized, it didn't crash on the IGPU but lagged a lot (understandable).
This is weird, but I suppose it is the GPU failing then.... Thanks for your help, will try to avoid crash-causing games for some time and see if anything later on.

But just as a question, by any chance would underclocking my card help, in theory?

 

[Britton30]

I'm not a GPU clocking person, but I would think running on default speed or a bit under could improve things. Look for a new GPU in your future.

Yeah, going to get a new GPU as soon as I get the money. I think by 2015 I am fine to get a GPU that appeared 4 years ago.

Thanks for your help. I am already on default, I think I am going to under it then try out a crash-inducing game before I go to sleep.

 

[Britton30]

OK, let us know when you have time, I see it's late in your part of the world.
