Computer Just freaked out

I was playing some Fallout 4 while all of the sudden all three of my screens went black and showed no signal from the computer, but I could still here Netflix that I had playing on the computer. Everything went back to normal after about 30 seconds or so. It closed Fallout 4 and moved all my windows over to my main monitor. I just ran a virus scan through Windows Defender and Malware Bytes but they came up with nothing.

 

I have no idea if this relates but a black box pops up randomly clicking me out of what ever I am doing then disappearing before I could see anything.

1. Are you using mods on fallout 4?

2. Do you have any pirated software?

-Yes, just basic things like better movement animations 

-No pirated stuff

The black screen could be due to a weird mod conflict (but unlikely). As for the pop up, you'll just have to catch it and find out what it is

Sounds like the Command Prompt but I could be wrong. It'd make sense though. Any process (game, application, etc) can be started or stopped through the Command Prompt.

Don't see what you need? Check the Full List or *PM me, if I haven't made it I'll add it to the list.

*NOTE: I'll only add it to the list if the request is something I know I can do.
