So the wife was on her computer this evening when all of a sudden the screen went black. I simply thought it was due to inactivity until I heard her moving the mouse around & still nothing.
I unplugged the monitor from the power strip & plugged it directly into an outlet. I powered on the monitor, the monitor (LG W2252TQ) showed the logo, & the windows login screen for a split second, then went black again.
I restarted the pc & after the initial showing of the amount of memory & video card type (GTS 250), the screen went black. Normally it'll show the motherboard splash screen before the windows logo but now it doesn't. I tried pushing F8 to go into safe mode as well as pushing DEL after the inital bios screen, but no display. If I turn the monitor off, then back on, i'll get that display for a brief second.
Ideas? Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
