Graphics card issue or monitor of softwarE?!
« on: November 14, 2005, 10:56:17 AM »
Currently experiencing the following problem:

PC Boots up to login screen
Login successfully
Then after a few minutes (this varies), the screen goes black and monitor displays "no signal", keyboard has locked up, but main PC is still on.

I press the reset switch, on reboot it either:

1. Screen goes black just before the login screen appears
2. Lets me login and then goes black

I turned the pc off for a while (30mins) then tried again. Was able to get into windows and do a system restore to a week before. Everything was ok for a while, then it did the same. Therefore I assume there is not a driver issue.

Im thinking it may be related to the graphics card or even the monitor?
So the only way to check this out is to borrow some kit of someone and try it out.

Has anyone ever experienced anything like this before?
