Intel HD Graphics 4600 Integrated stopped working during PC use
Hello everyone and anyone, this morning I was playing WOW when all of a sudden my desktop shut down. It tried to restart itself several times but would just keep restarting, all the while the screen stayed black nothing nada just black. So, I left it alone for a couple of hours, (this has never happened before) when I came back I turned on the unit and seemed like everything was fine only one thing, still black screen.I manually shut it down and unplugged everything, I then plugged it into a different monitor and still black screen. So, I was all out of suggestions when I remembered I can run a duel monitor from this PC, so instead of plugging in to the VGA Port I plugged into the HDMI Port from the back of the tower, and wouldn't you know it? It worked! So, what is wrong with my rig? Has the VGA Port gone bad? I have never heard of that happening. Anyway These are the spec to my Rig...Lenovo ThinkCentre Model# 002KUS INTEL CORE i5-4570s 2.90 GHz Graphics card...INTEL HD Graphics 4600 I will provide more info if needed. By the way after i plugged into the HDMI I quickly checked for driver updates. all drivers have been up-dated.
