Hello all, Please can I get a little help. Right then, I have a Radeon R9 290X Sapphire and it is built in my system that is 4 months old. Problem 1. I think this is card related but when i play games my screen blacks out and screen will then say Lost Imput and their will be a sound loop of what song or sound was playing at the time. In some Circumstances my computer fans will spin really quick. i always end up Force shut down with button. If i boost fan speed in AMD Catalyst cotrol center will that help cool it or what? or does it need a clean. *How do i clean it* Thanks you all for reading.:??:
 


Calm down.. that probably from you doing your "force shutdown".. read the full message to confirm.
I still think it a driver crash.. you often see that when screen goes black - and a sound loops..
So you need stay calm and do some decent diagnostics.. Make sure you do a totally clean driver install - and then check.

Cheers
