For starters I've got a Digital Storm 3.4 Gig OC to 4.5, 8 GB Ram, Dual Nvidia 570, 120 GB SSD, 1 TB HDD. I've had the computer 2 days, and have had no issues up until last night.
Last night I put my new computer in sleep mode for the first time. This morning, approximately 9 hours later I tried to wake it up. Moving the mouse did nothing, nor did tapping the keyboard. I hit the restart button on the rig, which worked fine, only now neither of my monitors wants to display. I've shut down and restarted several times now, checked all connections - everything is fine and the computer was running perfectly until this incident, I just cannot seem to get a display suddenly.
I have since hooked my old comp back up with no trouble; it is definitely not a monitor issue. I've hooked the new comp up to a new monitor, previously unused on this comp before, same results. Starts up fine; no visuals at all.
It has been suggested that SSDs do not like going to sleep, which I had no foreknowledge of and will certainly not make the mistake again if this is true, but in the meantime...my computer seems little more than a paperweight.
No matter how many monitors I hook up to it, it refuses to show anything. I have checked all components; everything is in proper position and seated correctly. Last night, no problems. Today? It will not display a thing on 3 different monitors, no matter how often I attempt to restart the computer.
Tell me there is a fix for this, and I'm just incredibly blind and missing it.
