Thread: Ubuntu (Jaunty) goes to blank screen less than 10 minutes after logging in
after logging jaunty (9.04) seems going fine after less 10 minutes screen goes blank , i'm unable anything. system dual boots windows 7 , windows 7 appears have no problems.
system working fine months , after being turned off on weekend failed start.
have tried;
- pressing alt+ctrl+f1 after blank screen doesn't work.
- booting livecd - same problems
- selecting different versions of kernel in grub
- killing x when ubuntu starts (so i'm on command prompt)
far has same problems except windows 7. if not windows 7 have thought hardware problem.
it sounds hardware problem.
**probably** overheating graphics card.
happens when start windows , preview 3d screensaver 15 minutes?
might want run memtest86 couple of hours. there should no errors @ all.
can grab "prime95" windows , run burn-in test (default settings). should able run hour w/o errors @ all.
failure in memtest86 indicates either dodgy memory timing, overheating, or defective ram.
failure in prime95 indicates either dodgy cpu timing/voltages, or defective motherboard or cpu.
failure in both tests indicates probable weak power supply.
