Okay so I have recently bought a new pc. It was build by vibox. It's a gaming pc and it runs all the games that I need it to run. Windows 8 however..wow. Since I have bought this pc windows 8 has utterly peed me of. Lots of errors which make the pc restart. Updates get stuck. Anyway to my problem I was on my pc, everything was fine. Then all of a sudden my pc disconnected from my tv (connected via hdmi) I have never had this problem before but now it won't connect again. Please help :(. I am only 13 and my mum bought me this pc (it took ALOT of persuasion) so I would hate it for it to be a serious problem. Please help.

Basic specs: amd fx4100 overclocked to 4ghz
RAM: 8gb
motherboard: Gigabyte 78LMT-S2P
Graphics: radeon hd 5670
 
The first thing that comes to mind as far as the general instability is the overclock. Have you tried to roll that back?

As far as Windows 8 there is an option called "Refresh" which will perform something like a repair install. It will keep all of your files and documents and your Windows 8 apps (if any) but some Desktop programs may need to be re-installed once the process is complete. Windows will place a list of programs that were removed on the desktop.
