I am running Ubuntu 16.04. Recently the monitor started to flash the startup screen and then go black. After running for a few minutes, I could restart the computer and I would get a normal startup and it would run perfectly until later shutdown for the day. Thinking it was a graphics card problem, I replaced my EVGA card with a EVGA GT730 card. The card was old and probably needed replacing anyway. I have a 600w PS so that should not be the problem. I do no gaming. I am still having the same problem with the screen going black at startup. All help appreciated.

  • What you mean with going black ? When? Howlong? What is the last screen you see ? What did you do before you had this problem ?

  • Screen flashes startup screen and then nothing. Black screen. If i let it run for about 30 min and restart it runs fine call day. This just started about a week ago and I thought it it may be my old graphics card so replaced card. Still acts same way. I did nothing that I know of to cause this.
