Windows 10: Screen Goes Black for a Long Time Then flicks back for a few seconds

Hey Users!

I come to this subreddit in a time of need. I started up my PC yesterday and wanted to play MW2, But after a few missions, the game crashed and the screen went black for about 3 Minutes and popped up an error (forgot to read). I turned off my computer and turned it back on and it was solved. But after a day, it did the same thing after I played MW2 and it wouldn't stop flicking on and off with the black screen. I'm currently away from my PC and turned it off. So I went on Reddit to discuss with you all!

Thanks! -Windows Zombi

Screen goes black

Hi Kris,

It is possible that your screen goes black may be due to a critical system error which can cause the system to shut down. To isolate your issue, we'd like to gather more information:

• Have you made any recent changes prior to this issue?
• Did you get any error messages when it turns black?
• Have you tried checking if the sleep mode is turned on/off?
• What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

Meanwhile, we recommend that you perform the steps in this

Screen goes black if the power cord is connected

Hi Tony,

As the screen goes black I suggest you to refer the Microsoft article on
Troubleshoot black screen problems and check if it helps.

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/troubleshoot-black-screen-problems

I also see that you are facing issues with the keyboard this might be due to the corruption of keyboard drivers. I suggest you to run the
hardware and devices troubleshooter and check if it helps.

Follow the below steps for the same.

Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter. Refer these steps:

• Press Windows key + X, select Control panel.
• Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons.
• Click on troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel.
• Run the Hardware and devices troubleshooter.
• Restart your computer and check if the issue is resolved.

Hope this information is helpful. Please get back to us with the information required, if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.
