I own a gaming PC that I built, and it has been running for 3-4 months. Recently, the system began failing to shut down properly—it would display a shutdown warning and then the screen would go black, but the PC kept malfunctioning. My drivers are all up to date, and I ran a full scan with McAfee, but I’m not sure what’s causing the issue. I just need my PC fixed so it works again.

The display turns completely dark as if there was no signal, or your screen simply shows a black image. I experienced the same issue—I tried shutting down the system, but the fans continued running. Eventually, I held the power button for a short time until the computer powered off. This happened even after a recent PSU replacement, so it wasn’t related to the power supply.

Currently, McAfee seems to be overly bloated—avoid using it. For your specific issue, here are some recommendations: ensure the quick startup option is disabled in Windows. Also, consider resetting your BIOS back to its default settings. There are several factors in the BIOS that can interfere with proper shutdowns, so a more experienced person might be able to help if these steps don’t resolve the problem.
