Black screen because of graphic card problem?

Your Graphics card may be not strong enough to running the game. Your AGP card might not able to play the game. You should confirm that your AGP is capable for running the game. If it is able to run the game,you will need to do this(in following) :

1. First, open your CPU
2. Then clean it and discard your AGP
3. Then clean the spot
4. And lastly again put the AGP on the motherboard again.

Then re-install your windows. After re-install the windows update the driver of the AGP card and install it. Updated driver can solve your problem. Then re-install your game then run it again. If you still have any problem then you might need change your graphics card. I thin the answer will help you.

Hi good day…if you have an extra video card, try to put in on and replace the old video card. Then if the issue will not resolve, check the memory card, and clean it by using eraser, scratch the pin of the memory card then insert it back to the memory slot. And start the computer. Thank you, hope its work. Regards; Logictor

Black screen because of graphic card problem?

Well, that’s probably because of your graphics card. Maybe your graphics card did not pass the requirement of your game. That’s why it crashes in the middle of your game. Your system merely overheats and causes the system to freeze and black screen. And because of that maybe there is something wrong with your graphics card already.

Do you have a built in video in your system? If you do, try to remove your graphics card and use the integrated video u have and turn on your pc again. If it starts up and proceeded all the way to your OS environment without any black screen then probably there is something wrong with your graphics card and need to be replaced. Hope it helps.
