Computer display goes into sleep mode while gaming

[Wilbur-Michael]

My computer is a Core 2 Quad Q6600 (G0 stepping) and a Nvidia 1050 ti (msi) randomly while games play the computer will suddenly turn off the display. I have testing Ram, Nothing is overheating (GPU max of 45C and Cpu max of 59C) and the cable stays in, I have tested different monitors and the hardware should be good. The only thing I can think of is the drivers or the copy of windows is broken, I have disable the display turns off selection in windows and sleep states in my BIOS. and it turns off even when I'm not overclocking the cpu.
I have NVidia 376.33 version of the game ready drivers.

The Motherboard is a ASUS p5n-e sli, auto overclock to 10% 2.64ghz

Does it come back on right away? Or stay off. What PSU do you have, and have you tried reseating power cables going to the card?

There are two settings that can cause this.

2. Click Screen Saver on the bottom of the Personalization window.
3. To change how long until your screen saver activates, increase or decrease the number of minutes in the Wait box.
