Windows 10: Iiyama monitor - Screen turns black for a short moment, then back normal, 2-5 times an hour.

Hey all,

Recently my friend had bought a set of 2 new monitors (both Iiyama Black Hawk G2730HSU-B1) because his previous monitor had died. He has a MSI P55-GD65 (MS-7585) motherboard, and a NVidia GTX 1050TI graphics card.

The issue currently is as the title says; He finds one of his screens (his primary) screen is turning off and back on, flickering black. We've did some double-checking on the cables, switching the monitors, but even when the monitors were swapped, the OTHER monitor then turned black and back, so we can be sure that this isn't a monitor problem. (by this point, we've also updated the drivers for his Graphics card, in case that is of any issue.)

The curious part is that I have had the very same issue with the very same monitors too. I also had a MSI motherboard - but a different model - and I also had that my SECONDARY screen was often turning black and normal. Less frequent than my friend's and an actually much longer 'black time', but it's the exact same observation.

My issue got randomly fixed when we did some heavy maintenance on my PC, we also had replaced the Motherboard to an ASRock instead as it had fabrication issues on other aspects. But that magically fixed it, and I want to be sure if nothin else is at blame before pointing at the MSI Board to swap it for another.

Black screen /Monitor

Windows 10 update for 11/14/ made my monitor screen darker than usual when it comes on and that is for about 30 seconds at a time then it goes black. I have to keep turning the monitor off and on; the computer stays on the entire time. I tried setting
the system back to an earlier time and other suggestions on your page but nothing works.

 

Screen turns black, system "hybernating"

Turned it on - after almost an entire day without touching it - and worked for 3 hours before the same screen black, system hibernating happened again.

Checked the temperature throughout and the cores registered at max 56 and 50.

Suggestions?

 

Black screen after turning monitor off and on


Hello all

I have a desktop PC, running windows 10

video card NVIDIA GTX 750Ti driver 364.72 (newest)

Dual Monitor :

BENQ connected with Digital Port
HP connected with DVI

Problem:

if I switch the BENQ monitor off, when I turn it on again it displays a black screen and there is NO WAY to have the screen back. The PC seem to be still working but no mouse or keyboard action can return the screen to normal operation, It stays black

Note: as I switch the Benq monitor off, the screen on HP monitor goes BLACK

Thanks for your help

Kind regards
