First of all, I know the problem lays on my side, but im getting realy tired of this sh...

Randomly my monitor turns black and i need to restart whole machine, but once I connect by TeamViewer to see whats happening and i can see my destop but the RoR window is black out (like when application crashes with display driver) and now the fun part.

Tried all possible nvidia drivers (starting from those windows one, throu actual nvidia page download, and even archival ones) on every time i have the same effect. There are no events in log viewer, gpu-z (software monitoring temp and etc) shows no peeks.

I turned Xbox support for win 10 off and set TDR delay to higher value, also with no results.

So... Do anybody has any more suggestions??

Done it already, I copied it from other computer on which RoR runs good, so it's not the case.

I had this exact same issue with a GTX 780 Ti video card. Monitors would go blank and everything else worked as intended. I would need to power cycle PC to restore monitors to working status.

It was super annoying and would happen regularly enough that it killed my motivation to play.

I'm not sure how it was fixed as it hasn't happened in a long time, but below is what I did.

1. Updated all drivers
2. Updated all software on PC
3. Reinstalled add ons. Disabled all add ons that were not needed
4. Replaced all fans and installed additional fans for air flow
5. Checked Video Card settings to make sure card wasn't over heating or causing the issue.
6. Updated Video settings in game to fastest frame rate and unchecked Shader Performance
7. Posted in forums regarding this same exact issue. I put this here because I honestly do not know if a Dev/GM/Staff member updated any settings for my account after my post.

The weird thing for me was, after all the above, the monitors would still go blank, but not as much before. I can't remember the last time it's happened for me as it's been a very long time.

Hope this helps.

Yes I updated all my equipment and that does not happen to me anymore, It use to happen all the time.
