Hi Falcons84,

Have you updated your Graphic Card's Drivers to the latest version?

Also run Everest Free Edition 2.20 which can be downloaded here http://majorgeeks.co...wnload4181.html
Then follow the instructions at http://sites.google....st-instructions so we can see a summary of your computer's details including temperatures.

Please post the summary in your next reply.

Desktop or Laptop?
Make and model
Have you tried a different monitor to make sure it is not bad?

It may have just been a glitch with the graphics card or the OS itself.
Either way I'm glad you got the issue resolved. Please let us know if there is anything further we can help you with or if the problem returns.
