I have formatted the HDD and totally reinstalled windows 10, and reinstalled SWTOR. Naturally I made sure to check all the drivers, graphics settings such as native resolution, Hz etc etc. I believe now the problem is a hardware failure of the video card itself. The card is a GTX 770 4 gigabyte card and has never given me any problems in the past with the game. It still works fine for all other games as well. The game did play well for about 20 minutes before black screening on me.
I checked the reliability monitor and this is what I found

Any further advice or support you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
this is likely heat related
Pull the card and check the heatsinks for dust etc make sure the fans are working etc
it is also worthwhile trying a clean install of an older video driver like 362.00 just to be sure
