To start, I have a Radeon HD 7850 graphics card with 2 monitors connected. The primary display is connected with an HDMI to DVI cable and the other is standard DVI.
I have a continual problem with my primary display where the screen will turn black with multiple colored lines running up it in a horizontal pattern as if the colors on the page were dragged to the top. It does not affect the secondary display(which is an extended desktop) but if I disconnect the HDMI cable the same problem occurs on the second screen. This led me to believe it is a driver issue but could it possibly be a fault in the card whenever it recognizes the primary display and malfunctioning?
Also, restarting the computer fixes the problem every time and I have tried updating the drivers to the latest beta build and trying the original released drivers after fully uninstalling the amd drivers.
Im pretty new to this site in terms of posting so I am not sure if this is the correct way to link this but here is a link to a picture of what is happening in case my description was not very clear.
