Black screen while playing games

Can you upload whatever report was created? Can you also take a snip it of the error you're receiving.

First of all, there was no report at all, secondly my CPU is in swedish so that will make no sense to you.

EDIT: I went and bought some "MX-4 thermal compound" which is supposevly going to cool down my processor more. I will try this and give you heads up on how it works.

Are the temperatures posted in Post#7 with the system at idle?

Black Screens can be caused by many different things, we'll need more information in order to help you.

Read and follow the instructions in this link to post your system specs: Dont Know What Hardware You Have..??
You can also try: Speccy Free System information Utility, this is easy to use.

For your 'My System Specs', your CPU is "Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q8300 2.50 gHz"


What are your OCs on your graphics card?

That temp is high for your Graphics card, set it back to defaults until you find the problems or it could be damaged.

How did you apply the MX-4?

Check your CPU core temps in Speccy or use free temp monitor program Real Temp, while at idle and under stress or gaming.

Those idle temps are very high, don't recommend doing anything but post here until the heat issue is fixed.

Intel specs for your: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300
The Tcase is 71.4°C add 5°C to that for max core temp, 76.4°C.

Check if your CPU cooler is loose, if you can easily turn it, then it's loose.
If it's a stock cooler it will have push pins, try to re-seat them.
Might be best to remove the cooler, clean the top of the CPU then re-apply the thermal paste and re-attach the cooler.
When your mate gets back.

Your welcome, good plan, you don't want to damage your PC.
