Hi I really hope someone can help me. Windows started to act strange about a day ago it froze at the log in screen (but my mouse still worked) and after a hard restart it would crash anywhere from instantly to about five minutes into being on. At first it just seemed to hang and "think" but then the screen would go blank, strangely the mouse always works and stay visible even when the screen goes blank (usually pure black or white with only the mouse still visible)
I built my own computer about a year ago and it's ran great till about three weeks ago. The first problem I had was easily fixed (The bios stopped recognizing my hard drive but I could go into bios and reset that and it fixed the problem) Now Windows started crashing and I haven't added any new hardware or program in over a week.
My sytem info
Intel Core i5-4440 3.1GHz Quad-Core Processor
ASRock B85M Pro4 Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory x2
Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Asus GeForce GTX 770 2GB DirectCU II Video Card
Rosewill Challenger-U3 ATX Mid Tower Case
Antec TruePower Classic 650W 80+ Gold Certified ATX Power Supply
Microsoft Windows 8.1 (OEM) (64-bit)
Corsair Vengeance K70 Wired Gaming Keyboard
ASUS DGX XONAR sound card
I installed the new sound card (ASUS DGX XONAR) about week ago and didn't have any problem until now. I tried uninstalling the drivers with no change. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
