BRick can't even computer

I got a 750ti and it runs, but twice now when I've had Netflix full screened my screen will go to orange and I have to restart... The 750 should work with my power supply so I'm hoping it can be fixed with driver removal and reinstallation and GPU reseating....

300 watts is always going to be a little edgy, given a relatively advanced CPU. 750Ti draws about 70 watts on full load, as I imagine does your CPU, a minimum of 40 for the motherboard, and you are already up to 180. If you are running lots of/not very efficient HD drives and an optical drive, you will lose stability.

Confirmed now, that's what it is. banghead I returned the first GPU in case it was defective but this one does it too. Time to build a new desktop!
