Well lads, my problem is a real puzzler to me.. while gaming my computer seems to crash? although I am not sure.. as I still hear everything running inside the computer.. although there is no sound coming from my speakers, and my monitor just seems to turn off and then it displays a message stating it's entering sleep mode.

I've no idea what's going on here, but it's really depressing me of late :p

Benchmark Scores I dont have time for that.
I was going to respond with a joke but it wasnt that great; So moving on, do a clean install of drivers and install the latest AMD WHQL drivers apparently they fixed the black screen issue with them. Things to consider.

It may be the monitor if you can try a different one.

It might be the game causing a driver problem does it happen with more then one?

Sounds like your video card is crashing maybe to a bad driver or heat and it's not recovering.. you checked the GPU fan for dust build up ?.

Cheers for the responses lads.

This is indeed happening to my current system that I've listed on my profile.

As an Irish man it's always easy to start with a lame joke! tis a great laugh ;)
I have the latest AMD drivers, but I'll reinstall it for the sake of trying ;)

The only other game that I have been playing is Bioshock Infinite, but this game crashes due to a lack of system memory apparently.. which is impossible ^^ so I am clueless there.
The game that I have this current problem with is The war of the Vikings, it's in it's beta stage and I play it through Steam.

I use MSI Afterburner to monitor my GPU, the heat never goes above 60 degrees, and I only purchased it a few months back, I have checked the fans and they are clear of dust..

Bioshock crashing might be due to a currupt HDD \ pagefile or having the pagefile turned off or fixed amount although only time i have pagefile issue's is either having it turned on with a fixed amount so i just keep it off.

Try checking for errors on all your hard drives in case that's the issue.

Try using GPU-Z as it tends to give more temp readings if they are available. Like for example on my 6970 i have 4 just on the GPU alone and if contact's not good it shows me. All so known that some times that contact can become bad over time which is what i like about my card and wish they did it more often.

I have had 3 good readings on my gpu and 1 terrible one being 25C difference so the reading 60 another part of the gpu still could be hotter.

the screen is powering off because the system has hard frozen, instead of bluescreening. that tends to imply the video card is at fault, or possibly the PSU.

After using GPU-Z I can now safely assume that it's definitely not an over heating issue, all is fine in that department.

This issue started about five days ago, roughly around the installing of TeamSpeak and the latest Catalyst drivers, could it possibly be due to these?

I'm thinking it's probably my PSU as I've had it for a good six years now.

I'm two steps ahead of that one ;) I've fiddled around with everything in the power settings the moment this problem occurred, all is as it should be, I was desperately hoping that I'd find the answer in here too believe me :L

i can see why you wouldnt suspect it then. it could be faulty, but being a good brand does give it some credence.

got a spare PC/spare parts? being able to swap PSU or GPU would really help here.

Uninstall the newer drivers and install the ones you had on before and remove your overclock on the cpu and maybe underclock the gpu just to see if the issue goes away.

And i been getting worried about my PSU as that's been around just as long.

I had the same problem with Bioshock Infinite. It was caused by my mobo switching my ram to single channel.

Well I've underclocked my GPU and stopped the overclock on my CPU, still the same crash :/

I've the pagefile turned off on the hard drive that I use for Bioshock, I don't have any spare parts to mess around with though :/

Funny thing, my computer freezes whenever I launch CPUZ, so I can no longer use it now ;s

Have you checked the resolution settings? Years ago I had the same issue but the game setting was calling for a resolution not supported . I doubt this will be the issue but you might check the game vs the video card settings vs what the monitor supports.

I've the pagefile turned off on the hard drive that I use for Bioshock,
I find turning the page file off can with some apps cause troubles. I would turn your page file back on and set appropriately.

Try cpu-z as admin.


That screen problem is typically a gpu driver reset or TDR or bad gpu OC.
Try different driver and try not to run gpu-z in the background or any other monitoring tool other then MSI afterburner, to eliminate any possible suspects.

And did you dobule check gpu cables? and maybe gpu needs to be reseated.
