About this tag
The tag 'video loss' covers user reports of the display going blank while the computer remains running, often triggered by specific input actions such as left-clicking a mouse, pressing the Alt key, or opening new windows. Affected systems include gaming PCs connected to TVs or monitors. Troubleshooting steps mentioned include replacing cables, reseating video cards and memory, and swapping input devices like keyboards and mice. The issue is distinct from a full system crash, as audio and background processes continue. Discussions may involve both Windows and Linux dual-boot environments.
