I have given up... I usually am able to fix my own computer problems w/o any help but this time its got me.
Ok... so here is the problem.
When I am playing only certain games, my computer monitor will go black screen, the background sound of the game loops constantly, and my computer sits... and sits... if I leave it alone for a few minutes, finally my secondary monitor will flash and then switch to a strange color on the background, everything turns green almost; it's kind of hard to explain. Once this happens, I have mouse function but only on my secondary monitor and I cannot access windows task-bar nor task manager. I then am stuck with either alt+f4 shutdown or just a cold reboot.
The games that this has happened on so far:
CS:S - right after joining a server, with about 30 sec of play.
Insurgency - again, right after joining a server.
COD 5 - used to happen, until I adjusted my settings a little better then it cleared up.
Battlefield 2 - used to happen alot, until I adjusted my settings.
So far, those four have given me the most trouble. I am able to play any other game on my PC just fine including:
ETW
COH: OF
IL-2 Sturmovik
Several others that I do not have time to mention.
