I brought a new SPARKLE GEFORCE GTX 560 and it seems to crash every time i exits a game [also sometimes when i launch a game] .It just shows some weird pattern in the screen and the reboots the PC. My configuration is
Windows 7 32 bit
Intel Core2Duo E7400 @ 3.4GHz
4 GB DDR2 Ram
Corsair CX500 Psu

Also, check the temperatures of GPU, use a software like HWMonitor to log temperatures. Have you overclocked it?

1. Install drive sweeper.
2. Uninstall ur current driver.(dont reboot)
3. Open drive sweeper and clean anything related to nvidia(driver,physx).
4. Reboot.
5. Install letest whql driver(or beta, whatever u like).
6. Reboot.

Follow the steps and if problem persist let us know.(then u might need to format ur os as well).
reinstall driver

Yes i'm using the latest driver [296.10]. The temperatures are really fine 40-42 when idel and 70-76 at load. What really puzzles me is the the card have no problem while playing the game but quit the game and bam squares in all diffrent color appears and then the system reboots. So you guys think the card is faulty ??

I think your card is faulty. Better try it out in some other's system and watch out if same things happens or not.
