hello guys,
i have this problem on my PC where after i start gaming for example CSGO it turns black and the screen goes to power saving mode, when this happens the sound stutters for a few seconds ( the sounds gets kinda stuck and repeats itself). after this i restart the PC and it turns on and everything is fine , however this problem can repeat itself a few times , for example it happens i restart my PC and relog to CSGO and it happens again and rinse and repeat.
the times which it occurs at are random ( it can happen at the second round of a CSGO match which is about 10 minutes in to the game or it can happen 40 minutes into the game or it can not happen at all )
also there are times when the problem happens and i restart my PC (to fix it) and the same thing happens right after i log into my PC and try to start an app and this can repeat a few times.
there was this time when the problem happened and i restarted my PC and went away to make coffee and stuff for about 5-10 minutes , when i got back i logged into my PC and the problem happened (even though i had left the PC for a while after the problem happened happened on the first time it repeated).
it can also happen when i alt + tab in and out of the game( for example once i tried to close a norton "high cpu usage" popup and it opted me out of the game and when i opted back the problem happend) .
sometimes when i am on my desktop(after restarting due to the problem) the problem is
accompanied with a USB disconnection sound.
i had tried reconnecting the graphics card on the PCIE slot and reconnecting the power cable and run memory tests and i also tuned up my gpu fans to the max.
also this only happens while i am in game.
my pc:
i5 4960k
16 gb ddr3 ram hyperx
gtx 960 4gb oc edition by msi
550 wat power supply
i bought it pre built and it worked fine for about a year.
it started happening once or twice a week and now it happens very often.
how do i fix this ???
