Question PC lost signal to TV while game was running?

[Maple_Uggh]

Might be asking this prematurely but just in case I'd rather ask instead of doing something i don't need to. I was just running Fallout 4 and looked up to see that there was no signal to my TV until I Alt - F4'd the game. This is the second time this has happened in a couple weeks (with a different game) with me chalking up the first to it possibly being a driver issue since i think i had updated recently before that.

I figured I would ask more experienced folks so...

Take a look in Reliability History/Monitor and Event Viewer.

Either one or both tools may have captured some error code, warning, or even an informational event just before or at the time the PC lost the signal to the TV during game play.

Try swapping in another known working video cable between PC and TV.

Try swapping in another known working TV or monitor.

Test the cable and TV on another known working computer.

The objective being to narrow down potential culprits.

Either directly or by elimination.

with it not being a consistent error(yet?) some of those may not work. reliability history didn't show anything around that time but game DVR appcrash. When it comes to even viewer, would it list this incident as an error? looking around the time that it happened today, i do see something straight up listed as an error and windows error reporting in two nearby.Not sure if these have anything to do with it 3 events ?

The "3 events" link is a download.

As a matter of general practice and caution I do not download files.

Instead take some screen shots of the relevant Reliabiity History/Monitor and Event Viewer screens.

Reliability History/Monitor is much more end user friendly and the timeline format may reveal patterns.

Event Viewer requires more time to navigate and understand.

Event Viewer presents a great deal of information in a variety of ways.

Take a closer look at that "game DVR appcrash" - the details, error codes, etc. may or may not be helpful.
