It happens randomly. Anywhere from right as the game launches, to 3 hours later. My monitor says there is no input but my computer is still on and I can still hear the music.

I have found only one other thread that had the exact problem I do, and it suggested to lower the GPU clock settings down to 750 MHz through the Catalyst Control Center. They provided a screen shot of what it would look like.

So I went into CCC to take a look, and it looks nothing like what their screen shot did. It’s just a blue bar and some text that states it’s running on “Balanced”. Not being a tech savvy person, I asked my brother about it and he told me doing that is a big no-no unless I want to fry my system.

The only other thing that has worked, is putting all settings to the lowest possible while in the game. But I am able to play FFXIV on near maximum settings with no problems. And though it is not an MMO, I can play a more demanding game than FFXIV, like Dragon Age: Inquisition with no problems. And while I was trying ESO, again, no problems.

I have no idea what information might be needed, so if anyone has any ideas on how to fix it, but you need other information, I’m afraid you might have to walk me through it.

Other things I have tried:
Uninstalling and reinstalling
-Repairing
Drivers are up to date
Running in windowed mode
Running as admin
I am directly connected to the modem through an ethernet cord

Tried the 64 bit client in hopes that it would somehow help. It did not.

I love playing, when I am able to. But this is very frustrating..

First things first. We need some detailed system specifications. What CPU,Graphics Card, Operating System and how much RAM installed?

Underclocking a card,it wont fry it. Overclocking it to extreme levels can and will.

As for CCC over/underclocking. I’ve never once used it for that reason. Ive always relied on MSI Afterburner due to its superior monitoring capabilities. Along with all the goodies Rivatuner Statistics Server has.

Can you provide a screenshot of your overclocking/performance tab?

The loss of monitor signal i’ve never heard of being a Gw2 related problem which leads me to think it might be power management options.
Have you gone through your Windows Power Settings and disabled Power Saving Options? Most,like PCI Express Link State Power Management, arent needed being on a desktop.

For “Screen” and “Sleep” I have them both turned to “Never”.

I think that is everything you asked for.

At work, we have monitors that will do that for apparently no reason, and powering the monitor off for ~10 seconds and turning it back on is all it takes.

I couldn’t tell if that was something you’ve tried or not -- might be you have already!
