It only lasts about 4/6 seconds, and only occasionally. Would it be the video card, or the CPU, the CPU does not have the video feature, sound does not stop just black screen. I'm thinking Video card. Thanks.. Bill _________________ Bill Ford S12 CLR, S12 Lamar keyless, Misc amps&toys Sharp Covers

I might be thinking monitor before video card. Could be an intermittent problem in the monitor - power supply, backlight...
If you have/had another monitor to try, that would help to isolate the problem. |

Check the cable between the monitor and computer. Might be a bad connection or a failing cable if there is a bend in it somewhere. _________________ Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous; praise is meet for the upright. Give praise to the Lord with the harp, chant unto Him with the ten-stringed psaltery. Sing unto Him a new song, chant well unto Him with jubilation. For the word of the Lord is true, and all His works are in faithfulness. The Lord loveth mercy and judgement; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.
- Psalm 33:1-5 |

Changed the input from HDMI2 to HDMI 1, so far so good. Computers are weird creatures! _________________ Bill Ford S12 CLR, S12 Lamar keyless, Misc amps&toys Sharp Covers
