Skyrim textures and Monitor Problems

[TheSebmeister]

I have quite a serious problem. I don't know whether it is entirely game-related, but it only happens in Skyrim. I recently got Skyrim and a new screen, an LG Flatron E2441, for christmas. Now, it works fine, except for a few, quite surprising errors. In certain parts of the game, the decals of moss on the rojks and sometimes snow on the floor, get more or less in an instant vanished then totally there, then vanished again, depending on where I stand. I also have a problem where some parts of houses would completely vanish and then pop back up again, depending where I stand including people. I assume it has something to do with the lighting. Another problem is the screen keeps cutting out and going into "Power Saving Mode" "DVI-D". This doesn't happen in my desktop, as I have been running the desktop for a couple of hours and nothing happens. I assumed that full-screen application would be causing the problem so I decided to test out Garry's Mod for a couple of hours, but that didn't make it die either. I'm only asking whether this type of screen model is a problem and whether it can be resolved, now or otherwise. I have also tried it using the DX9 unofficial mod performance fix and the decals work, don't know about the screen. Thank You and I hope I get some feedback.

 

Specs:

ATI Radeon HD 6850 Gigabyte overclocked

Gigabyte MA790XT-UD4P Mobo

Unlocked AMD Phenom II X4 B50 3.2GHz

LG Flatron E2441 Monitor with HDMI input

Other than the info I have given above, I used DX11 and no applications in the background.

And I have no images yet, as most problems cannot be seen with a still picture. They need to be on video and my PC might not be able to handle that.

Make sure you are not using Adpative Anti Aliasing. Turn it off in CCC. Change to either multi sampling or super sampling.

 

You can see the problem in the following screenshots:

Thank You so much for your help. This is exactly the problem that I have been having.

 

EDIT: This hasn't fixed my monitor problem. I have found out that skyrim crashes the whole computer, not just the monitor, at random intervals, no matter what quality I use. If anyone could help, It would be greatly appreciated.

Use a program like "hwinfo" or "gpuz". Go to the sensor part. In both program you can enable an option to log to a file. Turn that option on.

Play Skyrim for a while till it crashes your system. Reboot, and have a look inside the log file you've created. Do you see any raise in temperature, voltage dropping etc.?

 

Your monitor is turning black because your system is crashing or your GPU is failing (because it is underpowered, overheated or may be faulty etc.).

If you are sure the GPU temperatures are okay, you could try to increase the voltage a little as well (as you OC'ed your GPU it might be undervolted). Do this in small increments.

 

Also see if you get the same problem when you run the UniEngine benchmark for a while.
