Screen shuts off
Win 10 Black Screen at Boot Up
Wednesday, September 19, 2018 by Sed | Discussion: Personal Computing
Are there "shortcuts" on the keyboard to shut down my PC safely when my screen goes black and shuts itself off??
EVGA isn't sure it's their video card - tried a couple drivers etc...
I know it has to be the video card but in the meantime I have no way to shut down that I know.
HELP

For Sed
Sounds to me it’s your video card or your monitor. Is the inside of your computer clean? Dust can make things run hot. Pop your vid card out and reseat it. Check your monitor and see if it’s running hot.
I’m just throwing out ideas to eliminate hardware problems before you mess with the software problems.
I did my dust out 2 months ago... Wasn't having this prob back then... Guess I can do it again CAN'T HURT RIGHT!!

I have had no probs since Shutting down at night. Maybe leaving it on sleep all the time had something to do with it??

Well I had to stop hibernating my computer, because of problems. I recommend a shutdown. I one time had the problem of black screen at boot up. I asked the computer gurus, and suggested something came loose.

Yea, I learned a long time ago save as you work this dream stuff was saved
didn't lose anything and I also do 2 external back ups incase 1 external were to go down
which has happened.
I was just converting a video from one format to another when I got the black screen .

can't say i've ever had the screen going black from just doing stuff. the few occasional times it happened (been a while since i last had one) was exiting fullscreen (1080p) game to 4k desktop (or alt tab). something to do with tdr..

my screen went black maybe it's the power cord.
My screen went black but was able to power off pushing the power off button which
means it had power so not the power cord.

My screen went black then jumped around looking for DCI or HTMl then went completely black ... Hasn't happened since I shut down now at night

I shut down my PC everytime i'm done using it so I might 2 to 4 boots a day and night .
I had another black screen while video editing again late last night , so I reinstalled the
2 editing programs i was using incase that was the problem since then no black screens
while on the desktop but this morning when booting up again got 2 black screens till
the 3rd time it booted to the desktop ..
So I don't know what the problem still is .
