Is the monitor power still on when everything blackout?
If yes, it's most likely your graphic card. If there's no more power to the monitor, you probably have to change monitor... -

Black out 5 to 10 minutes later... sounds like a blank screen saver or system went on standby mode.Originally posted by PaulSmith:Yes, my monitor and CPU is on with power. just that it black out after 5 to 10 mins...... but me buy from 2nd hand shop.... then duno how to open the CPU to change the graphic card.

Move the move or press the spacebar or Enter key. It should come back.
