[Sameer Sam]

HI,

I am getting frequents black screen of deaths.

Very few times, what I see is Black screen while working on After effects or browsing internet or watching movies, today I got 2 black screen while playing multilayer MW3 and even on Batman.

What it does?
The screen goes black and CPU is running. Keyboard lights goes off.
1 in 10 times I see that whole system gets restarted again.

Graphic driver is latest updated.
CPU temp are 30-34 C idle and 45 C while playing games
Mobo temps around 38 C normal, 50 while playing games.
RAM are okay in MemTest.

I recently tested my system with Performance test with all test and it shows result as 2022.4

What can be the issue of black screens?

I checked my CPU it has black lines.. See images.
I tried to rub it with cloth and it was getting off, is that dust? Will that effect? If yes, then how can I clean it in a better way? Is this CPU is issue?

I would agree. It sounds like they knew something was wrong with that part of the board from either testing or experience. I'm surprised they changed a PCIE slot and not just give you a new board. I would approach them again and tell them it isn't fixed.

 

[Sameer Sam]

Yes. this is what I will do.
Do ASUS gives new board?

 

[kemical]

Asus will replace defective hardware and hopefully this is what they will do in your case but see what they say.

 

[Sameer Sam]

okay.. I do not know what they will do now. But definitely I will send this back again. Let;s see.

And by this infos, what you say is mobo is only faulty?

If I need to get any new mobo, then which one should I get for? Should I again go for ASUS?

 

[kemical]

I wouldn't like to say what's wrong with the motherboard but replacing the pcie slot sounds very unusual. Let's see what they say first before choosing another..

 

[Sameer Sam]

Sure, will let you know.

TY

 

[kemical]

Ok Sameer... I'll await your next post..

HI

I was using photoshop and got black screen, after I open my PC again and open photoshop, I got the attached error.
Is this saying my GPU is going bad?

 

[kemical]

No not at all.. It means that it's stopped using the hardware to accelerate the graphics. It doesn't give a reason why and could be down to either the driver, gpu or gpu slot. (which really you kinda knew already)

 

[Sameer Sam]

okay.. dont know why this is happening..
If I change my motherboard and use same CPU then I need to reinstall the windows?

 

[kemical]

Unfortunately yes. Microsoft considers the changing of a motherboard means the system has changed so much it's basically a new computer and Windows will need either re-installing or re-activation..

 

[Sameer Sam]

okay.. I will take this to repair PC shop and lets see what is the faulty thing.
Can the PSU be bad?
What ever forum I am visiting with same problem says the keyboard jamming / off is happen because of mobo.

 

[kemical]

It doesn't sound like the PSU is bad but without further testing I can't say for sure. Unfortunately trouble shooting can be a slow process..

 

[Sameer Sam]

okay..
