New Computer HELP!!

[Jonee589]

Hi, I don't know if this is a decent computer or not but too late I have it now
http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/au/en/ho ... 49366.html
It came with a 23" LED HP Monitor as well.

Even if I play using compatibility settings on mx simulator the same thing happens.
Soon as my bike and track load i begin to ride then the screen goes black for a little bit then comes back on again.
What the hell is happening? Thanks

Also, the time varies for how long it takes to go black.

Try running it in a window. You should install Nvidia's drivers too. The OEM drivers are probably outdated.

Thanks, new drivers were available they are downloading now. Hopefully that solves the problem, it happens sometimes even when I'm not playing mx simulator.

Restarted the computer after I installed the new drivers and now when I logged in its got worse. The screen flicks of then back on every few seconds.

Did you try running the game in a window?

[Jonee589]

Yeah, works a little longer but then it does it again. It happens when Im on my desktop as well, if i quickly open up computer and browse through files in a window it doesn't do it.

Are you sure your monitor cable is on good?

[Jonee589]

it came with three, hdmi, dvi and vga. I have tried all of them plugged in properly all with the same result

Just use the hdmi cable and make sure it's plugged in securely.

Im just going to give the shop I got it at a call hopefully they can solve this strange problem

In the end the monitor was dodgy, Im going to take it back and get a 3d compatible monitor
