Hi guys,

Not long I got the following from overclockers:-

Radon Intel Core i5 760 2.80GHz @ 4.00GHz Overclocked Bundle
Asus P7P55D-E Intel P55 (Socket 1156) DDR3 Motherboard
Corsair XMS3 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 16000C9 (2000MHz)
Corsair H50-1 High-Performance CPU Watercooler
ZOTAC GeForce GTX 470 1280MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
Crucial RealSSD C300 64GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Hard Drive
Corsair HX 750W ATX Modular SLI Compliant Power Supply
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache - OEM

Very impressed overall with the quality and service of overclockers, been running fine until last week.

My problem is I keep getting a black screen every now and then, mainly when my computer is idle and mostly just after starting up, I have never had it happen when i am gamming but once or twice when on the internet.

Twice I have had an over clock error on start up not sure if this has to do with any thing?

My temps on CPU has never whent over 70 while gaming and idle they are round 37.

Any insite to this problem would be great if any one has an idea where i should start trouble shooting?

The main problem is that it is totaly random, so i dont know where to start.

Thanks in advance.

hmm, sounds strange, cant think of anything that might be the cause (as it does sound random), maybe take it all apart and put it back together ensuring everythings properly connected, if one of components isnt quite seated right and keeps losing contact maybe, with the vibrations from running
Unless anyone else has better idea?
 
is isn't the blank screensaver is it :p

if not, then maybe its a graphic problem, do you have a different card you can try? or are there any small wires trapped behind your card?
