display shows one color and then no signal

marioleno23

My display randomly shows one color for a few seconds and then stops receiving a signal. Everything works after I turn off and turn on  my computer and a few hours later it happens again. Any idea why and how do I fix it.

Details on what you're using? Is the monitor old? Could it be your device (laptop, desktop, whatever) not displaying properly? 

Fine you want the PSU tier list? Have the PSU tier list: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1116640-psu-tier-list-40-rev-103/

What's are the full system specs of your computer? 

If your CPU has an iGPU, you should try that as well to see if its the card. 

If you have any overclocks on the system, back them off to factory settings and try that.

I have a small gpu overclock but will try without it. If that doesn't work I will try the integrated graphics. Will update later.

I turned off my overclock and it didn't work.  I will try the integrated graphics now. this is a picture of how the screen looks before it looses the signal.

One thing I noticed is that the hard drive indicator led stops blinking when this happens and it just turns off but the computer is still on.

The HDD LED not staying on can mean a LOT. BIOS isn't finding the drive, it can't find a bootable partition... etc. 

Just a warning, the graphics card can't be in the system at all when using the iGPU.
