Hello, my computer on and off for months now has had issues with playing video games, My monitor will sometimes turn off and back on giving me a an error that says

Nvidia kernel mode has stopped working and has been recovered

And then other times, it completely shuts off, but sometimes i can still hear sound and other times I just receive a black screen and have to restart, and i guess its a "blue screen" but it isnt showing me the blue screen because the monitor craps out or something..

Here is the lay of the land

It most definately is not a virus, but the weird thing is... It stopped doing it for a while then started happening again.

Could you please include some information about your system. Such as video card, CPU, motherboard, power supply, and amount of RAM. There are a variety of things that could possibly cause this and the more info you give the easier it is to narrow it down
