    AMD HD6990 Graphics card causing PC black screen / shut down?

    To end this thread - I took the PC back to the Gaming PC Supplier and they did stress tests on the card - the card stood up to all tests but did go black screen once or twice when they actually entered my game (LOTRO this time). The card manufacturer totally refused to do anything as the card is...

    AMD HD6990 Graphics card causing PC black screen / shut down?

    Hi Well I logged into my game LOTR online - not that much of a demanding game on the graphics card - I got through the log in screens into the game and the screen went blank (black). I looked at the Techpowerup log (I installed it as you obviously find it informative). GPU Core Clock [830MHz]...

    AMD HD6990 Graphics card causing PC black screen / shut down?

    Thanks for your reply Lonewolf7 - the MB gives one beep at start up. On the odd occasions it does 3 beeps (indicating graphics failure I believe?) I have to pull the cable (graphics card to monitor) out and reseat it or pull the graphics card out and put it back.

    AMD HD6990 Graphics card causing PC black screen / shut down?

    I don't know anyone who could lend me a GPU - Cougar Computers replaced the graphics card and this is the second GPU where we have black screens whilst the game / music plays in the background. We have to force a shutdown and reboot. I just moved the graphics card into the second slot on the...

    AMD HD6990 Graphics card causing PC black screen / shut down?

    I hope someone out there can help me. I'm not overly knowledgeable on PCs but the problem I appear to have is that the AMD HD 6990 appears to stop working and close the graphics down (black screen but you can still hear game music in the background). You can't get back to windows so have to...
