Title: Freeze on window login screen
Post by: uruzu5 on June 16, 2011, 02:49:12 pm: Hi
I'm using GTX460 1G since 9/2010. Last week I cannot login win 7. It freeze in the welcome screen.
I'm search this problem occur during the display driver problem.
When I was uninstall the driver. I can login win 7. However I install again the driver then problem again.
I try using the most new driver again. But result is same.
Now I'm using the old VGA card now.
How can I fix this problem? Is it my GTX 460 hardware also have problem??

You haven't mentioned what Gigabyte hardware you are using but it would sound as if an extended clear of the CMOS would be a good idea for starters.

Remove the power cable from the mains supply and then press the power switch on the case for a few seconds just to drain any residual energy in the PSU capacitors.

Once done remove the motherboard battery for at least one hour before replacing it.

Next plug back into the mains supply and boot.

You will now need to enter the BIOS by pressing DEL and load Optimised BIOS Defaults.

Make any other changes to the BIOS settings to suit your self like disabling the floppy drive, disabling the full screen logo and making the HDD the primary boot device and then press F10 to save and exit.
