Well, from time to time my monitor will lose connection in a LoL game, It happened once earlier today and I usually just restart my computer again, this time it lost connection and I tried to restart it, it would give me this Startup Repair thing and it's searching for problems preventing from my computer to turn on. Could my computer have some virus that completely ****s up my vidoe card or what? I don't know what to do and I'm completely worried that it's going to screw up my computer. Yesterday night my internet throughout the house completely disconnected which was strange because everything was plugged in usually it turns off because I kicked the router cord out. Please help me.

Strange enough I tried restarting my computer again and it worked. But I'm still annoyed about my monitor deping.

My monitor used to have weird problems where sometimes when I'd turn it off and then back on while my computer was on, it would act as if the computer was off. It was fixed by unplugging it from the wall-electrical-plug-in spot (lol wat r thesewthingz called again) and plugging it back in.

Install Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware and do a quick scan if you're worried something infected your PC.
Also this Startup Repair thing is it a program or a boot sequence (probably not the right word/term) thingy?

I dunno, seems like a boot sequence.

Oh then that's normal.
You get that when windows wasn't ready to shut down but it did anyways (most likely by holding power button)
Maybe it's your monitor?

Maybe o:. It's pretty annoying because it only happens in the middle of a LoL game.

Try making sure all cords are plugged in. Also, uninstalling the driver might be a good idea, but only if you know what you're doing.

No access to other monitors yet maybe later, I swapped out the monitor cord to still have it herp. 5 times in one LoL game.

I know I shouldn't bump it like this but I think my monitor doesn't like full screen games, that or my graphics card is completely fried and its time to get a new one.

It's more likely to be a problem with the graphics card.
Out of curiosity, which model is it? It should have a control panel that will allow you to read its temperature. I wonder if it could be screwing up due to overheating during gaming? Maybe the heatsink/fan needs to be vacuumed.

I found out it was a monitor problem everybody with an Acer monitor would have the same problems, No Signal the on/off button turns an Amber color. I haven't got the problem in a while because I run every game in border-less windowed.
