Random Black Screen

Recommended Posts

I just installed windows 10 on a NvME drive and I am having issues where my Dayz is randomly while playing going to a black screen this happens sometime within 30 mins of playing.. The screen remains black and is frozen even when I open task manager and although I can see the ALT-TAB selection windows on the black screen monitor it wont minimize or allow other programs to be ontop of it.

I have a Windows 7 SSD installation on the same computer still from my old hardrive and that version runs good with the same settings.
I Have been playing Dayz X64 but I will run 32bit next time I play and see if that has the same problem.
I also Verified the game files.
I have launch options
-noSplash -noPause -maxMem16384 -maxVRAM4095 -CpuCount=4 -exThreads=4 -malloc=system

Windows 10 pro x64
i5-4690k
ASUS Z97-E
16GB ram Averix 1600mhz
Nvidia Geforce GTX 960

Remove all of them, the game doesn't support those launch parameters anymore.  That should fix it but report back if it doesn't.

So I removed them. Currently the game is loading into a server everything seems fine but then the screen freezes like a screenshot and game becomes unresponsive. I have tried multiple servers and 32 bit and 64 bit versions.

My nvidia drivers are 378.66 for 900 Series.

I removed my Dayz config files in "My Documents" and reinstalled the game. It worked for longer but not that long.  about 10 mins and My screen froze like a screenshot and Dayz stopped responding. Anyhelp would be great.
