Well well am I pleased to have you guys onside... So after messing around with different combinations of ram sticks I find only the 2g stick works. The pc fired up with a brand new windows 10...

Right i'm back but its not good news.... Can't get the pc to startup beyong the first logo screen. Tried everything I can. The other day I found that F9, when you power up puts it into diagnostic...
Well i'm on a set of long shifts for the next 3 days so time is limited but the aim at the moment is to get it back up and running. It does initialise but I just get a blank screen but the mouse...
Yes it was an ebay purchase so doesn't owe me a lot but all was well when I first got it 6 months ago even with the current graphics card in it. First thing I did was upgrade from Win 7 to Win 10....

I used the installer that downloaded with memtest86 and it completed ok. When I restarted the pc it didn't boot from the usb even though I set the usb as first boot device. I also tried pressing...
Hmmm - the plot thickens... I can't run MemTest86 from a usb or cd so I tried the windows memory checker and that won't run either.
Had a pan round google and can't find another alternative. Any...

Thanks

After a fight... and it was a fight... I got the driver updated from 341.92 to 341.96 as suggested by Kbird - many thanks i'll monitor and see how it goes with this driver.
Tom it is 5gb Ram -...
Well that didn't last long before it started freezing again just as before. Heeelp !
Any ideas anyone.
Spec of the pc is:-
I started off with this which I upgraded to Win 10 as soon as I got it...
Thanks Tom
I've now disabled onboard graphics in bios - It was set to PCI and not PCI-E - I will monitor this and see how it works.
Many thanks for the help

It has on board graphics. I hadn't thought about disabling the onboard graphics, I assume you mean in device manager, I'll give it a go and if that doesn't work come back with the specs.
Many...
Bought a used Asus EN210 and when installed found the driver keeps freezing the pc (windows 10). I regularly get a popup telling me that is what is happening.... So I bought another card, a Zotac...
