    Monitors go back for a few seconds, then restart and whole PC is weird.

    It happens whenever- normally when I close an editing program. My monitors go black, and when everything comes back all of the peripherals (mouse, headset, etc) are re-detected. Has anyone got a clue what part could be causing this? Got the PC this Christmas, unsure on why it's already playing up :/
