My PC randomly starts lagging, then the monitor goes black but PC stays on, then I have to switch it off and on again then after I switch it on the PC doesnt switch off

Why is this happening?

Display Driver Uninstaller

:one: Download the driver for your GPU from the manufacturer's website using the links below, but don't install them yet.
:two: Download the latest version of DDU by clicking the button below, clicking on the top post which is called "Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) VXX.X.X.X Released", and clicking ***Official Download Here*** in that post.
:three: Disconnect from the Internet by unplugging your ethernet cable or turning off WiFi in the bottom-right corner.
:four: Open the program you just downloaded, choose a location for DDU to be saved, then click Extract
:five: Open the Start Menu, click the power icon then hold Shift on your keyboard and click Restart. Once your PC has restarted, select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart, and press 4 to load into safe mode.
:six: Find the folder you extracted DDU into and open Display Driver Uninstaller.
:seven: On the right side, select the type as GPU, and the brand as the manufacturer of your GPU. Then, click 'Clean and Restart'.
:eight: Once you have loaded back into Windows, install the GPU drivers you downloaded earlier. Once they have installed, connect back to the Internet.

They are both on but my cursor can’t move to the other monitor

It may be setup weirdly, Go into Window's display settings

#

it may not be setup on the layout correctly

I’m In that on the other monitor but I can’t go over to it

toxic mantle

#

The Cursor isn’t letting me

toxic mantle
#

Okay so the screen with the cursor, if the other monitor is on the right, move the cursor to the left

#

As it may think that the monitor is over there

toxic mantle
#

yeah just change the display settings to reflect it]

#

so it knows where each monitor is

toxic mantle

no prob

#

When doing that ddu thing I didn’t load into safe mode is that bad?

#

Should I do it again

toxic mantle
#

If you didn't boot into safe mode it would be possible that it could of not done it correctly,

#

I'd say do it again just to be safe
