Screen Goes Black! PC Turns Off Also

Shadowmarkus · 12-11-2008, 05:14 PM

Well, the thing that happen, it can be anytime, the screen goes black, and the little light goes orange (not connected), and my music stops, and im telling you that because that must mean my computer is the one which stops, BUT, the light is still on, the fans and so are still going, so i got no idea what it is, i checked all power options, so it's not that..

Specs:
Ati Radeon HD 4800 512 Graphics Card
4GB Ram
Amd Phenom 9850 Quad-Core Processor, 2.5GHZ
Rasurbo 530W ATX PSU

Anyone who can help me?:)

I have this exact same problem. I came here looking to make a new post but it seems that you're having the same problem.

I can't seem to tell if my video card is going bad or my Monitor. I hooked my computer up to a friend's monitor and it worked just fine. Which makes me think it's my monitor.

The only thing that doesn't make sense is that when my monitor goes black, my music and all sound in general stops but the computer itself is still on LEDs still lit and fans still turning.
