Random screen blackout

Go to solution Solved by MIKEY_1214,

I remember this being an issue with some hp monitors running with amd gpus...

 

My HD 7770 does it with one of my two hp monitors sometimes. Does it make the monitor go to sleep?

Weird. the monitor seems to be in a sleep mode but does not wake back up. i think i may have figured it out tho. it doesn't make any sense to me but Netflix seems to be causing it. I'm not sure how but i think that is it. i closed Netflix and haven't had any further problems (So Far). That is it indeed. I just opened Netflix again and once again it shut off. closed Netflix and BAM right back on (Netflix is the page open in the picture). This is very very weird. but i guess that's it! Thanks for the reply @Darkman! hopefully this thread can help someone!

Hey guy's, so i'm having an issue with my monitor randomly blacking out, i'll go ahead and list my specs real quick then i'll go a little more into detail.

 

MotherBoard: Asus Rog CrossHair V Formula Z.

CPU: AMD FX-8350.

RAM: 16 Gigs G.Skill Trident X (2400MHz).

PSU: EVGA Supernova 1000W G2.

GPU(s): 2 Radeon HD 7950 DD's (In Crossfire).

 

 

Okay so i have a triple monitor setup on my Crossfire setup. i don't have EyeFinity enabled just using 3 monitors. 

 

Main Display is a vizio LEDTV (Detected as display number 2) plugged into HDMI.

then a Hyundai monitor (Detected as number 3) plugged into Mini Display port with a Mini Display to VGA Active adapter.

And a HP w19 Monitor (Detected as number 1) plugged into VGA.

 

So the HP Monitor randomly goes black. my Computer stays on and the other 2 screens stay on. but that monitor just blacks out. it's still on but is black, it shows picture for a little after a reboot. i've noticed while watching netflix, when i start a new episode it goes black, then if i start another one after that it will turn back on for a little bit, if i unplug it and plug it back in the display will come back shortly. but then i have the issue again. i have tried it with the Active adapter and just plugged into the VGA. the problem wen't away for a little while but just randomly came back. i have tried different catalyst driver versions, including the latest and older ones. if anyone can help that would be awesome! Thanks!

switch the right monitor to the left and put the left on the right and see if it does it  (obviously switch the ports to)

@techguru thanks for the reply! i would try that However i have all my cords for everything run through sleeves and stuff so i cant physically move the monitors without undoing it all, and i have just tried changing the ports. However now that i know Netflix is causing it, it's not really a problem :). but thanks!!
