The past 2 days when I start up my PC, the screen keeps falling out and starting up directly after each other for 1-2 min straight.

Anybody knows what can cause this?

What GPU and Driver you running? Did you update your GPU Driver recently? What kind of flashing do you have? What starts up every 1-2 min, the Screen or the PC?

I think I have the same problem currently. I updated my AMD Driver and for some reason the GPU cannot produce a picture on my main screen when coming onto the Windows log-in screen (it switches from very dark to light dark every few seconds). ATM I can only help myself by either turning off/on monitor or restart the GPU Driver by pressing WINDOWS+CTRL+SHIFT+B. I will probably have to switch to an older GPU Driver again or try out the newest optional one.

My GPU is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB and I did update my driver like a week ago.
It is my screen that keeps starting up when I start up the PC and it is the same as you say, on the windows log-in screen. I try to fix it by pulling my HDMI cable out of my screen of pc and put it right back in and then I knock a few times on my screen and PC :p

Do you know what it could be?

It's definitely the GPU driver. But I have no clue what causes the issues... :/

The screen flashing went from bad to worst... Now it just happens on random moments, I missed the second round for the cup now.
