Problem description: Basically the problem started a couple of weeks ago I started getting black screens when gaming, Nothing particularly intense I don't play much that's graphically intensive. What seems to happen is that the screen turns black Windows restarts and when it comes back up it cannot detect my graphics card and boots up only using whatever basic drivers are installed. Then I have to reinstall my drivers again until I get it to work temporarily before the whole procedure has to be repeated again a few days later when the same error occurs again. A trawl through google doesn't seem to have turned up anything for me. Attempted fixes: Installing the latest beta drivers. Rolling back drivers. Used a driver removal tool to remove all drivers and install from fresh. Recent changes: Not that I am aware of. -- Operating system: Windows 10 Home Edition System specs: Intel i5-3570k Quad core @ 3.40 Ghz 8GB DDR3 RAM Generic 650 Watt Power supply Generic Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Sapphire R9 270 2GB Graphics Card Location: UK I have Googled and read the FAQ: Yes

How long had the computer been working with Windows 10 before the issue started? You might try doing a system restore http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/4588-system-restore-windows-10-a.html to before this started. Ferrosol posted:Generic 650 Watt Power supply Do you know what brand it is?

Zogo posted:How long had the computer been working with Windows 10 before the issue started? Since about October/November last year for windows 10 and just a generic no name on it PSU. But I'll try a system restore if I can and see if that does anything. e: system restore did nothing but I've started keeping a log of when it's happening to see if I can make out any sort of pattern.

Replace your power supply and try again. Generic power supplies don't work, especially long-term.
