Hey there,
This problem used to be intermittent, now it happens all the time. Here's the error message I used to get before the screen completely blacked out on me: http://i.imgur.com/sFsHwGI.jpg
Attempted troubleshooting:
This happened after I moved so I thought that maybe it was the outlets. It made sense to me because the outlets were loose so I assumed my PC wasn't getting power and so I relocated it. It didn't really work but it did bring my PC back on. (Or maybe it was a coincidence or a power cycle just helped.)
I did a bit of looking around and apparently I was told that my processor, power brick, or ram could be the problem? I'm not sure where to begin and what would be easiest to deal with first hand?
I checked my VGA cable/port, and I suddenly noticed that my PC was making a irregular sound that kept looping that never occurred before.
I also tried unplugging it for a good while and removing the power cable from the tower for a bit and even replaced it and there was no change.
I haven't checked inside yet but I wanted some more insight on the issue. I don't know very much about my case because it was put together for me. However, I have no problem carefully tearing it apart to find any information.
Side note:
I apologize if I chose the wrong category. After much research, accidental overclocking was a repetitive term.
