I have built my first computer yesterday (it worked 3rd time thanks to Tom's Hardware ) and it was working fine. But after about an hour of it running the screen just went black. It sounded the same, the fans were still running. But nothing on the screen. If i turned it off and on it would turn straight back on working. I'm thinking its the graphics card but cant be sure.
Specs:
ASUS M4A87TD
AMD PhII X4 965 3.4GHz
430W Thermaltake PSU (I was thinking it might have been lack of power?)
4GB OCZ Ram (should be 1333MHz dont think it is though, help with setting it up in BIOS would be good too)
Amaze Raedon HD5770
Using a HDMI connection to a 32" TV (it said it was 1080i on the TV, i had my resoultion at 1368x780 (i think))
These problems have now stopped, I dont know if its because I switched to VGA or if its a coincidence. But even if i switch to VGA from HDMI when the screen goes black I still have to restart it.
Its not overheating either from what I can see, I've got a good case the (NZXT Gamma, I love it) its good awesome ventilation, 1 big fan, plus the Power Supply fan, Heat sink, and the fan on the Graphics card itself.
So if I could have some help with this that would be great,
Thanks Heaps,
Caius
