Hey guys. Installed a new GPU as mine was playing up, All was going well until the screen goes black! No set time when it’s gonna do it and don’t know what could be causing it! When the screen does go black, whatever I’m playing in the background, still plays. Any ideas???

Run DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) and follow the instructions for whatever you are doing wther it be wiping the drivers or replacing a card, i had issues a while back where i had a driver crash and i thought all was ok when it recovered but it had ended up corrupted and even after a new driver install it kept the same corrupt files and set my card to safe mode speeds - DDU will remove ALL files and start from scratch - worth a try! - just make sure you download the new driver first, ready to go after reboot.

Hey guys just to keep you updated, changing to HDMI Monitor and lead seams to have fixed it!
