    I have a strange BSOD issue:

    Whenever I restart or turn my computer off, then back on, I get a BSOD. Then, when I choose "Start Windows Normally" after hard reset, there are no issues at all until I turn off or restart my computer again...

    It does say something about the display driver not being detected, and that it times out before recovering. Considering how flawlessly everything has been going... this BSOD issue is really getting annoying.

    Any ideas?

    have you updated your graphics drivers lately as lots of others have been having problems with 7970 lately.
