Upgraded to Windows 10, Monitor turns off after 1-3 minutes.
Upgraded to Windows 10 when I went to bad last night. I wake up to the computer beeping, 3 beeps at a time, nothing on screen. I decide to keep waiting, just in case. After many hours, I try anything to get it to react, but finally decide to force shutdown. Then, after startup, I see the windows 10 logo and a spinning circle thingy, and eventually the screen goes out. I wait a while at this point. Eventually, after about half and hour, I force reset it again. This continues a few times and finally I see a login to finalize the upgrade. The screen goes out again, can't get it back on, and I wait then force restart. Eventually, I am able to get to the desktop. I login to my account (it shuts off the screen again, but I get back here), and find I can't open the start menu, can't use the search bar. I am now trying to restore my computer back to windows 7. I have tried both video cards on my computer, but it seems to randomly shutdown the video after a random amount of time, usually after a minimum of 1 minute. I've had it on for like 5 minutes one time. Also notable, the fan inside is spinning the fastest it can, the whole time, from startup til the monitor goes out. Please let me know what I can do to restore the computer to Windows 7, and keep my data, as most of it isn't mine. I am in big trouble for upgrading without permission.
