    PC gets black screen everytime after I close a stress test


    As the title describes, in cyberpunk my PC would randomly freezes around a few minutes into the game into the game but audio still works. So I wanted to check things out, I tried furmark for around 15 minutes and didn't see anything out of the ordinary. However, a few seconds after I close furmark my screen would freeze then turn black and my monitor would show no signal. This happens consistently without fail no matter how long I stay in the stress test even if it's just 10 seconds. It also happens in unigine superposition stress test in the same way. I have tried DDU and reinstalling the gra

    New laptop hardlock with black screen

    I have a new notebook, running Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, which is randomly freezing, showing a black screen. System specs:

    • intel core i5
    • HD is an SDD, 250GB
    • GPU: Intel HD graphics 620
    Symptoms:

    • happens randomly, related to no particular reason, time of the day, and programs running
    • when freezes, the notebook screen is "active" (back light is on) but completely black; external monitor, connected via HDMI, is black as well
    • when freezes, no key input is responding. I tried to press "CAPS Lock", which has a led on it, and the led is not toggling
    • I noticed I can keep the PC on for several days, without any problem. It always freezes whenever I'm actively using it
    What I already tried:

    • reinstall Windows from scratch (even starting from an external USB drive)
    • run windows in "clean boot" mode (all non-MS services disabled, all startup programs disabled)
    • update the BIOS, and all "relevant" drivers (GPU, System Firmware, network interface, bluetooth, ...) of the PC to the latest version
    • testing the memory with MemTest86+: no issues, after several steps
    • stressing the GPU with FurMark: reached quite an high temperature (70°), but no issues
    • stressing the CPU with IntelBurnTest: reached quite an high temperature (70°), but no issues
    Now, I would guess it's an hardware problem, but the strange thing is that we ordered 6 identical PCs, and this is happening on 4 of them. Therefore, for "statistical" reasons, we don't think it could be possible that all of them shows an HW issue... It only happens with a different rate from one PC to another (for instance, happens daily on my PC, and once a week on another)
    Any idea on how to investigate this issue further?
    Any test / improvement I can do?

    Nokia N97 Stress test

    If your wondering about buying a N97 device look at the stress test. My friends over at N97geeks.com have done.



    - scrach resistance scrached the screen with a coin and a key

    - they put the device ina ziplock bag with coins and keys.

    - scrached the paint and keys with a coin and a key

    - dropped the device in milk PC gets black screen everytime after I close a stress test :) and washed it off under running water with soap

  4. PC gets black screen everytime after I close a stress test

    PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??
