Windows 10 – Black screen when games are started (World of Tanks, War Thunder, World of Ships, Steam Games)
(Info: my sons Computer – only have internet/Skype Contact with him – don’t know Computer details)
Up until two days ago my son played all the above games on his computer without any problem.
But one day ago he started to get black screen - and probably freezing – when trying to start a game. Can only get out of this by using Power button and shutting down.
Firefox/Word.doc/Skype/and such like, work fine (that is - until a game is started)
Got him to check for virus, cleaned up computer, updated Graphic Card driver, did Windows 10 updates!
Despite doing all this, the screen still goes black and freezes when he tries to start a game (never gets game started before this happens, so unable to change any game settings)
As I said all these games worked until two days ago!
As far as I am able to tell – nothing has been changed since last successfully playing. Just shutting computer down and then starting it again next day (and when the problem started).
So I am at a loss
Does anybody know what the problem is?
thanks
