  3. Black Screens when playing games

    Hello, my pc has black screens when playing games. I already tried to fix that by sfc, dism, disk repair... all of that didn't help. I have quad core q8200 and it work great but in the past i had gt 430(not good for playing games of 2007-2015) so i bought
    gtx 9800 and it's perfrect for games of 2007-2015, my fps i high with no lags. when i replaced the gt 430 with gtx 9800 my black screens disappeared but now past something like 3 month and the black screens came back!! Before i replaced the gt 430 with gtx
    9800, i tried to play with my original gpu(gt 210 also bad for games), the black screens disappeared but instead of that i had freezes that coming after 2 hours of playing. the black screen at the start when you put the gpu disappear but they come after 3
    month and rarely(after 2 hours of playing) but after a week the come less rarely(20-30 minutes) and after one more week, they come when you start the game. They only disappear if you put out the gpu and put it in again(I think so.), but i can't do every 3
    month, it's will become very annoying. And replacing the psu won't work. it's happened with all games with no exclude. Please help me!!!

    Freezes and black screen when playing games that needs hard reset to fix

    Playing Game (HoN) Screens go Black, needs hard reset. Only gaming

    Hi People,

    I built my own PC and its been running great for 2 years.

    Using an SSD for OS and boot, and 1TB black drive for games and programs.

    I recently installed "Heroes of Newerth" for some giggles. I dont believe it is a highly intensive game on the GPU but i get some crazy crashes on my pc.

    Pretty much Ill be running HoN and Skype and both screens just go black, no sound or beeps, no error, nothing.

    My keyboard nad mouse lights are still on.

    My keyboard has multiple user levels, (4) each have different colour lights, but none of the user levels work, which makes me think the driver is not running on that, so maybe the pc has 'mostly' crashed.??

    Ive done a SMART test and all good
    Done a memory test (windows) and 100%, no errors found.

    Aside from this i dont know what the next step is.

    Usually i solve these on my own, but since there is no error I can't even google tog et something more sepcific!

    ideas anyone?

    Thanks for any advice or suggestions,

    Gangel
