Hi, I have a quite new PC, i don’t know the stats(?) But I know its a good one so it shouldn’t face any lagging. The monitor is an old LG one. I always download safe things, nothing that could have a virus. I’'ve never had problems before until a couple of days ago when my screen turned off but after rebooting the PC everything was fine.
I was playing a game and out of nowhere it froze. I couldn’t move my mouse, nothing. Then the screen went black for maybe half a minute. I didn’t touch anything and it just turned back on itself, but my game was closed and all i saw is this (check the photo). Obviously I don’t know whats the thing in the middle since I can’t read it. I could move my mouse but the screen stayed like this. I then closed my PC using the power button and the monitor. When i turned it back on it seemed fine, but when I was opening my game it just wouldnt work or would lag a lot.
I also think that the fans were making some unsual loud noise but i’m not too sure.
I don’t know much about PCs but maybe it could be my graphic card? I would really appreciate your help to figure out what’s wrong and what I should do next. Thank you.
Check that your graphics driver is up to date and feel around your computer to ensure it wasn’t overheating.
