Hi there, just a guest here but am having some trouble.
I've had my custom PC for about a year and a half now (specs below) and added a second screen about 6 months ago, but only in the last week I seem to have started having some problems with my screen, and I'm presuming the graphics card. As soon as I booted my PC late last week, the main monitor (both monitors down the bottom) was filled top to bottom with this green and grey "static". I'm just calling it static because I'm not sure what it is. Thing is, my secondary screen remains untouched by the static, it's still fully usable when the static is on the main screen. But when I unplug the main screen, the second screen goes static! This is what makes me think it is the graphics card, as the screens can be fine for between 5 minutes - 1 hour or not at all in a night. Even going to write this out, it's pooped out twice, so it's very unpredictable and very annoying.
Please help, thank you in advance for responces
