Hi everyone.

I am trying to render a video in lightworks, and i've rendered around 23 videos so far, but today my pc went into a black screen. I was still able to move my cursor, but i couldn't do anything else, not even crtl+alt+delete. I tried rendering my video again, and it happend again, but this time i noticed task manager suddenly had disk an memory at around 80% and then the black screen occurred again.

Can anyone help me with this?

Update your post to include full system hardware specs and OS information.

Include PSU: make, model, wattage, age, condition?

Disk drive(s): make, model, capacity, how full?

Overall, if the PC has a history of heavy use for rendering my initial thought is that the PSU is a likely suspect. The PSU may no longer be able to meet the required power demands.

Look in Reliability History and Event Viewer for any error codes, warnings, or even informational events that precede or correspond with the times of the black screens.
