    Display goes black ~5m after fresh install. Doesn't come back.


    Hi all,

    I'm quite stuck. Finished my machine build last night, got it to POST ok, and am now having some r trouble trying to install Windows 10. Here's what happens:

    - Boot from windows 10 usb
    - Install windows successfully (can navigate around and use the system like normal)
    - After about 3-10m the screen goes black, I can still see the white cursor for a few seconds, and then the signal drops out and the monitor goes to sleep
    - On reboot, I seeing the circle of dots, but then the signal drops and the monitor goes to sleep.
    - Boot into safe mode using F8 at startup (I reenabled F8 during the 3-10m it works)
    - Safe mode works, but nothing I've tried so far from safemode has made any difference on normal boot. -- no display signal after swirling dots.


    Here's what I've tried so far that hasn't worked:

    - Run windows update from safe mode --- but my network won't work from safe mode, and the driver install for my ethernet card fails.
    - Update drivers from safemode -- most driver installers won't run. And device manager either thinks its got the right driver (chipset) or the install timesout (network card)
    - Reinstall windows and Disable sleep/hibernate.
    - Reinstall windows and run windows update as the first thing to try to get new graphics card drivers (didn't finish in time)


    I'm at a loss at this point. Never had an issue like this on my previous builds.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Evan
