Plz help, monitor randomly shuts off/system still on
Hi guys I have recently started to have a problem with my computer while playing certain games, such as: Counter- Strike source (quite an old game), Mass effect 2, home-front, etc… my screen just shuts down. I tried two different screens and that isn’t the problem, tried running GPU stress tests, ran 3 different anti- viruses… don’t know what to do…
When the screen shuts off the computer still working (power on but i think the computer it self freezes since it often replays last sound contentiously) it just makes a noise like the fans start running on higher rpms… also if i try to turn the computer off and on the screen says "no connection" (both of them)
I have:
Windows 7
CPU Type:
AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 940 Processor
CPU Speed (GHz):
3.02
System Memory (GB):
3.97
Video Card Model:
NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX/9800 GTX
The funny thing is when I play LoL it doesn’t shut off, also it does so randomly regardless on what settings I play the game.
