Hey
Thanks for any help anyone can give me.
I was posting some photos online when the screen suddenly went blank.
The PC appeared to be fine, it hadn't switched off. I restarted it and the monitor was coming back. Also, the graphics card fan started running fast and hasn't stopped since.
I had to plug my monitor into the default PC socket and the fan still runs fast as soon as I turn the PC on, so I guess its still getting power?
I tried to run a game to see if it would give me any indication of what could be wrong and threw out the below error.
Not sure if this is of any help.
