Yesterday I did a fresh window 7 re-install and ran into a new issue

Are you using any Nvidia Control panel settings? Let's abandon them to see if Nvidia bloatware is interfering as we see occasionally.

Manage your external monitor using only the Windows function for this on the Screen Resolution control panel.

Now type services.msc in Start Search box, turn off all Nvidia Services and set them to Disabled.

These should already have been turned off along with everything except your AV in msconfig>Startup and msconfig>Services (after ticking the box to Hide all MS Services).

After doing all of these reboot PC, then confirm again in Services.msc and msconfig that these changes have been made.

What AV are you using?

All of them are bloatware and not needed unless you've invoked a setting in the Nvidia software itself. So disable all to test.

AV = antivirus.

thank kindly and I do not have AV let :) and they are disabled and the screen still turns off

You must have an AV. Being without one is utterly reckless unless you have a hardware firewall like that in a router. Even then I would install Microsoft Security Essentials to have basic coverage.

Meanwhile download, install, decline trial versions, run full scan with MSE, Malwarebytes and SUPERAntiSpyware
as a new install can easily be infected by reimporting infected files.

Then run SFC /SCANNOW Command

i ran the scan windows resource protection did not find any integrity violations..

ran malewarebytes and found nothing

Have you rebooted to check performance without the NVidia bloatware and reconfirm all of those are shut off?

yes i have and the screen still turns off

and those services are indeed still disabled

Please explain what you mean "the screen turns off" when you provided a video that shows Steam program "Not Responding" which is not the same as the screen turning off.

Are you saying that one screen goes black when this happens, but the other one shows "Not Responding?" Which and for how long does the Not Reponding last? This normally will resolve itself.

um both screens go black for a few moments then go back to normal , then i get a display device has stopped responding and had returned to normal error message

other words it looks like the screen turns off and turns back on, does this 3 times before the game CTD
