About 5 minutes after startup the screen went black and a moving blue dialogue box - ''Check PC display settings'' appeared.
Resetting was the only action I could take. Prior to the black screen everything appeared normal, as was the case after resetting, and confirmed by checking at Display Properties - all settings were as they have been for some months.
To the best of my knowledge the system is virus and malware free and nothing of this incident appears in Event Viewer logs.
Has anybody experienced similar, or any information on this occurrence?

Make sure the connectors are well-seated and no pins are bent.
