Ok so the title basically says it all. Recently with no apparent cause my monitor starts turning to black while keeping a blue video signal light. All other processes on the computer continue to run normally, ie state of decay still is running without locking up. I had trouble with this for a day left it came back booted in safe mode no problems turned off some boot up processes and services and now I am able to type you this from that computer and monitor with no glitches so far *knocks on wood*. Well when I was having the issues I couldn't boot the computer in anything other than safe mode, bios ran smoothly. Then it shut off while in safe mode, that's when I left it alone. The only other monitor I have to plug the computer in is an old CRT monitor which says out of frequency.
Other thoughts:
G card: AMD Athlon 5770 approx 4 years old was oc to Core clock 950 (from 850) and memory clock to 1304 (from 1200) with no issues till today
Monitor is Acer native resolution 1280x1024 60-75 hrtz.
Today I stopped the oc and put the g card at native specs. Other than that I have no idea why it suddenly started working again.
Thanks for the help and in short does the community think it's a G card issue or a monitor one?
