  1. computer's screen randomly going grey whenever i'm drawing


    i don't know if it's my graphics card or not, but whenever i'm drawing, my screen will go black for a maximum time of about 7 seconds, and then my screen has a grey tint to it - some colors will make the screen glitch out, with another color overlapping said color, as if inverted.
    it only happens when i'm drawing (i use the Krita program) and i don't know how to fix it. every program still works perfectly fine, though, and resetting does solve the problem, but it continues to happen if i use Krita for a long period of time.

  2. Computer randomly has black screen and restarts

    Taco this could be software also. Before you get all crazy, do as Erocker suggested. Find out the error in the Event Viewer. Look for the faulting module and the error code itself. Also check the reliability monitor. At the bottom it will have "View all Error Reports". Post a screen of whats in there if anything.

    This could be a simple as a bad driver install.

    ALSO have you downloaded or installed anything lately? STAY OUT OF THE DAMN BIOS UNTIL WE KNOW THE ERROR! lol. I know you. Baby steps boy, baby steps.

    HD5770 grey screen problem

    My Grey Screen was caused by bad memory. Changed the memory and everything has been good for over a year. What i mean by this is that Grey Screens are not black and white to solve they are in the grey area. There are alot of different components within your computer that can be causing the grey screen. If you can i would RMA 1st though because the GPU may be really sensitive to your system. If you still have issues after the RMA got for overclocks and RAM.

    My computer will randomly go to the lock screen


    Hey I'm having this problem as well. It started late last week/earlier this week. Bumping this thread. Laptop (running Wi 10) randomly cuts to lock screen and makes me re input my password. I looked at the solution posted above but I want to keep my computer's lock screen. I just want to stop it from locking randomly.
