• Confusing Crash

I've had an issue with Garry's Mod recently. After ten minutes, it crashes and somehow disconnects the moniter from the rest of the PC. I have no idea how or why it does this. It worked perfectly fine until recently. I also had this issue with Zombie Master. I use Windows Vista, but it ran perfectly fine for the longest time. I'm reinstalled Steam and completely deleted and reinstalled all of my games. It still happens. Edit: I also deleted all recent downloads that could've been causing it, and do not currently have them in Gmod.
your computer is fucked, its impossible that gmod is disconnecting your monitor. Its most likely a hardware issue and not a software one.
I'm not talking actually disconnecting my monitor physically, I figured that would be obvious. It acts as if my PC has been turned off. It says that "No signal can be recieved". This always coincides with Gmod crashing.

Has your computer been working correctly lately? Besides this of course
Other then this, it's been working just as it always has. I played a couple non-Steam games that worked fine, as well.
What non-steam games?
Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis. That's about it, actually.
Do you mean your Display driver stop working and your monitor shuts down?
It doesn't say anything about a display driver, it says the moniter can't find a connection with the PC.
Happened to me a few months ago. It turned out my Power Supply Unit (Or PSU) was bad and eventually some components in my computer started failing due to lack of power supply. Then it turned out I shot my graphics card, too. I'm not sure whether or not it's one of the two, but post your specs.
I have AMD Phenom 9150 Quad-Core Processor 1.80 GHz 4.00 GB 64-bit Operating System NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT Graphics Card
