Some full screen programs make my monitor shut down

I'm using a 7850, I5 3470 and 8GB DDR3.

If you try to suggest updating my drivers/ windows i will find you... and i will kill you :)

well to me it sounds like some full screen programs are sending a wrong refreshrate/reso combo.

Doesnt your monitor say 'incompatible mode' or something?

If your monitor doesnt say nothing at all and just shuts down then the monitor seems to be the problem.

No it isn't the monitor i've tried my old 19inch, my televison and my BenQ RL2455HM. None work and they just shut down.

 

but ... then its direct3D related? can you try to find an opengl app and see if it persists?

Reinstalled my drivers + DirectX, it's fixed now. Thank you for the help.

Nice glad it worked out!

lol  I think we all have felt that way
