So today I turned on my Pc and about ten minutes or less later it just black screens, I was just web browsing and audio continued for about 5 seconds before cutting off also. All fans and lights inside the PC stayed the same , the lights on my mouse and keyboard remained on, although the caps lock/num lock buttons have no effect on the keyboard. This has happened 4 times in a row now and random times all before ten minutes into use. I have checked the HDMI cable for problems,GPU drivers are up to date, nothing of note is at fault in device manager, the led above the power cords into my GPU are green (r9 290) I do have a small overclock on my GPU but it has been running smoothly for about 10 months or longer now. What can I do? Extremely frustrating at this point.any help is greatly appreciated!

P.s. I have left the computer in that state for over 39 minutes and still nothing has happened
 
Solution
Download DDU, after appication starts select "clean and restart"
It will ask you to enter safe mode, click yes. After this download latest drivers from AMD. This should solve the problem.
