So, about a week or so ago, I left my computer to go eat lunch. Computer enters screensaver, I eat lunch, and I come back down, just in time to see my monitor completely frozen, with random dots appearing and flashing about near the top of my screen. Nothing was responding, so I did a force-restart so I could log on again.

Then, I did the same thing. Same things happens, but every once in a while it would also flash the whole computer a random color, usually a primary color, or any other combination of the 3 (red, green, blue).

The issue hasn’t resolved itself, unfortunately. I found out that it also does it whenever I try and run a video on iTunes, or use Hammer, except it automatically resets after a few minutes.

This is quite frustrating, seeing as I was going to try and use Unity for my contest entry, and how Unity, along with the other mentioned programs, would require quite a bit of “hardcore” rendering (my screensaver was 3D pipes, so maybe it has to do with 3D rendering).

Of course, it could all be for the better: I suck at Javascript, and I’m only getting 24 hours to work on it, not including various interuptions like sleep, food, and life in general, so working with what I’m used to (GameMaker) would probably be a good idea.

Anyhow, maybe next time I’ll use Unity (and fail :P).

EDIT: Just realised this means no Garrysmod.

D****t.
