• Screen goes black for a few seconds, then goes back to normal

Earlier today, when I was browsing the Internet, both my screens went black. The power was still on (blue leds still functioned), and nothing else seemed to occur. A few seconds later, the screens popped back on like nothing happened. Windows and Firefox were still running. Just a minute ago, the same thing happened about a minute after I left a TF2 game, and exited to windows. It hasn't happened before. The only change I made to my system recently is that I installed Fallout 3 and the update. It did seem that, at the moment of black-out, one or more fans inside my computer started spinning slower. Not sure if this happened the first time, so it might have been a coincidence. Running Windows 7 64-Bit. Nvidia GeForce 560 (About two months old, so quite new) Intel i7 Quad 2.8Ghz. (No custom changes were made to the hardware, ever.) I'm not too worried (yet) since it happened only twice, but I figured I'd ask now, rather than after my computer dies, if it would at all.
I would say check your cable connections, or the driver is continuously crashing. Re install the drivers.
