Been unable to play for last week or so due to a graphics issue. Gradually over the past few months the display(s) on my PC has been cutting out, eventually it got to the point where it wouldn't even load windows. I thought it was the graphics card and have replaced it, however after a few hours I got the same issue, the display(s) would cut out and the pc would have to be restarted. Hardware tests showed nothing out of the ordinary, so I resinstalled the OS thinking that was the problem. After reinstalling I get the same problem so it's not a software/driver issue. THinking its possibly an overheating issue I ripped open my case and cleaned out all the dust that I could see as well as checking the mainboard for any burntout transistors or capacitors. Although the inside was quite dusty I couldn't find any obvious burnouts on my board. I'm completely at a loss as to what would be causing this problem.
Breakdown of problem
-Displays attached to PCIE Graphics card stop working after about 10 minutes, or will stop working once any graphic intensive program is loaded OR won't function once windows starts to load (The displays WILL work up until windows starts to load) Have tried using one display or the other. Either way I get the same results
-Onboard Display Adapter works with CRT monitor attached to it without any issues.
-Installed NEW PCIE Graphics card, get same issue.
-Reinstalled OS and get same Issue.
-Cleaned inside of case and checked mainboard for burnouts, get same issue
I am thinking it's a Mainboard problem but am praying it's not and that perhaps there is another solution
