Recently my PC having some issues. It will randomly blackout / crash. My monitor will enter into Power Saving mode den it will not turn back on again. Even after I restart my cpu, monitor will show that it is entering into power saving mode den no image on screen. The power button of my monitor will keep blinking (as if I have offed my PC). I can hear the sound of loading into windows, but nothing on screen. It seems like keep entering into power saving mode.

In a few occasion, it crashed and recovered , den bottom right icon will pop up "NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, version 353.30 stopped responding and has successfully recovered" (I forgot the exact version number but it is this message). Anyone can help?

GPU: MSI GTX 970 Gaming Edition
CPU: I5 3570K
Windows: 10 64bit
Monitor: Dell U2713HM in 1440p with DVI-D connection.

Btw I only have this problem after I upgraded to Windows 10.. Izzit hardware or setting issues? Possible that the monitor cable faulty?

Settings -> System -> Power & Sleep - change both "Screen" and "Sleep" to "Never".
