this happened 2 days ago while i was playing heroe of newerth my LCD screen suddenly goes black and you can see the LED indicator blinking which means theres nothing wrong with the lcd screen (i think) capslock and numlock is steady so i cant alt-f4 and use windows key to restart pc so i guess my pc frozed so i had to restart. played the game again same thing happened played prototype 2 still happened.. now i opened the pc and saw that everythhing was dusty so i bought that canned air compressor disassembled everything and blew the dust off everything assembled it back and played the game again samething event happened i have 4 gig of ram 2 on each slot removed one played backed out did the samething with the other so i ruled out RAM
been surfing the web watching youtube videos and watching movies avi(3 full movies from opening to ending credits) the whole day yesterday the error did not happen, awhile ago my brother was playing the sims 3 and he said that h pc did not restart hes been playing for hours, i told him to play heroes of newerth and bam black screen again, I tried playing it on window mode so instead of black screen the pc reboots i dont know whats up but i dont think i have a bad VGA its external btw EVGA GTS 250 and its te energy saving green thingy........... i can afford another video card or another PSU but i not both so if ever im buying replacement i have to be sure its the right one that will fix the fault..............
PS.
Tried video memory test and it passed on all pass i have no idea on how to test the psu for faults
