Summary0002478: Windows 10 Display Driver Crash
DescriptionSpeedfan crashes roughly 50% of the time I start it up. It isn't a bluescreen or freeze, but it seems to completely annihilate all video capability on the machine. The display will go black, but I can still hear music and whatnot playing from my computer, so I know that it is still running.

Usually the screen goes black, but sometimes this happens: http://i.imgur.com/gYKHzjJ.jpg

I included that picture in the attached zip. The zip also has my entire speedfan install if you want to take a look.
Steps To ReproduceStart speedfan.

But seriously, I have no idea. This doesn't seem to be a common issue from what I can tell. I have tried running display driver uninstaller and reinstalling my nvidia drivers to latest.

I have not tried reinstalling speedfan yet, as I want to keep my configuration. Took me hours to get it just right.

Here's my system specs, if that helps you.

i7-4770k
Asrock z87 extreme 4
Nvidia gtx 770 w/ fresh drivers.
Running on an 850 pro ssd.
Additional InformationWhen speedfan DOES start correctly (without crashing), it works perfectly.
TagsNo tags attached.
Motherboard ModelAsrock z87 extreme4
Video Card ModelAsus gtx 770 2GB

To backup SpeedFan, just save all of 3 cfg files you'll find in SpeedFan's "Program File" folder.
Also you should try one of the related switch you'll find here: http://www.almico.com/sfarticle.php?id=3
NONVIDIAI2C could help.
