So sometimes completely randomly monitor used to shut down so i shut down PC, plug off monitor from graphic card (which is completely new r7 260x sapphire) and i put back in, doesnt happen whole day anymore, but today it happened this morning, i did as always, it happens every few days... It happened again in 2 hours and i did the same, it happened now around 8 hours later, i do it, it happens again 5 minutes later, i do it again, it happens 5 min later, i decide to plug it into CPU instead of graphic card, screen appears and it appears the PC restarted itself because it's logging into windows, i get unexpected error, blue screen error is mentioned, i check for solution but the window just disappears...

When it happens first screen goes black, then i hear the sounds getting fucked up, the graphic card makes the same noises as when you start the PC, then silence (and now im quite sure the PC restarts too)

Monitor is quite old and the cable for monitor doesnt fit the graphic card but there is one metal thingy that fits the graphic card and the cable for monitor.

Where is the problem?

What am i supposed to do now? Please help soon, i hope it doesnt happen again.

Oh and the power supply i bought with the graphic card (few weeks ago) because the last power supply was making weird noises.

The other think you can try doing is downloading and installing the latest drivers for you Graphics card...

That is if you can keep your computer on log enough to do it. You could download from a friends computer.

It works when plugged on processor but nothing happens when i plug into graphic card now, its just black, i'll try to shut the pc down and try to install drivers quickly before it shuts down again.
