  1. The screen froze then went black


    One Discord program was open, then the screen froze and did not respond to the mouse the cursor froze, then the screen went dark, the mouse cursor remained in place, then I turned it off using the button, and when I went in, I found in the device manager that both video adapters looked strange, one is built into the percentage with an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle, the second with a down arrow. I rebooted the first one and turned on the second one. what's wrong with my computer

  2. PC goes into black screen and froze

    The monitor has signal. Its just it froze and num lock froze and mouse.

    What could be the culprit?

    Here is what happened from start.

    My brother is browsing the net with facebook and youtube and after a couple of hours, the screen turn to white and froze. So he did a reset and when it boot up it says windows didnt load correctly and it never booted up.

    The next morning, i reformatted a new drive hoping its just an OS problem. But the problem is that in the desktop suddenly it will turn to black screen and froze the pc.

    Now, made another clean install and when installing AMD driver, during the installation where it should blink and flicker the pc froze with black screen. So this is a gpu issue?
