So as the tile says, my screen goes black in the game. In details, I'm playing dota2 and elders scrolls online, than suddenly both games goes black. Desktop is fine, so I can just alt tab, close, and reopen. Anyway I'm curious about what happened, anybody know this ?

It sounds like your graphics card. What's in your laptop?

He does not have a laptop. He is saying he can tab out to the desktop.

What is your full parts list? I would suggest flashing to the most recent BIOS version and updating the GPU drivers.

I forgot to mention, it's a pc with i5-4670k and a gtx 760. Hmm maybe you're right, motherboard gigabyte z87 ud4h, psu corsair hx750, ram corsair vengeance 2x4gb. It should be running well with this parts right ?

Like I said, go the the motherboard website and flash to the most recent version and update the GPU drivers from Nvidia.

Sorry. I misread. :( 

Have you downloaded the latest video drivers and checked your cable connection?
