Why is my computer screen black?

Why does my computer randomly crash to a black screen?

  • When I'm on my computer, after 10-20 minutes the screen will turn black and I have to hold down the power button on the computer to turn it off. I have all the latest drivers for my computer. Here are my computer specifications: OS:Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit Video Card: ATI Radeon 2400 XT (PCI-E) (This came with the computer) Brand: Gateway Model Number:GM5664 Another important fact is that when the screen turns black, you can hear the computer working harder and and the sounds coming out of it can get pretty loud. I'm pretty sure it's not an overheating problem, and the crash usually can occur no matter what I'm doing on the computer. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated, and please tell me if I'm leaving out imporatant details about my computer.

  • Answer:

Stupid good for nothing vista, it runs to many processes that arent necessary and if your ram or temporary memeory is a little bit it will automatically shutdown to avoid major damage, you can clean the inside of your computer that might help but you probably have to open up task manager and stop processes that take up to much memory but please dont use this if you have no idea what im talking about. oh and your memory would help both ram and major memory
