Speaking of video card problems, I had my SSD die on me, which had my OS on it. Got a replacement...reinstalled Windows 10.

On the first boot up after about 3 minutes the monitor turned off and couldn't find a signal anymore. I assumed it had to do with Windows 10 auto downloading/installing drivers on that first boot up and trying to switch to optimum resolution. Tried restarting and was never able to make it past windows loading screen before the monitor would lose signal.

After Googling the problem, I end up taking the battery on the MB out for 30 minutes, plugged it back in and it worked. No real question, just trying to figure out what I actually did to fix it.
