About the monitor going off to black screen & comming back on.
couple of suggestions.
1) the screen is running on a refresh rate which it can't handles so it cut's & restarts, so go to display property & advanced to change to Hz of it to 60hz. also list the modes it can't display as well. (burned a monitor that way before )
2) Might be that you have default monitor on, mine does this flick to black screen & back when i usually press the little icon on me taskbar that can do quick changes in the display from 800 x 600 to 1024 x 768 etc Again this is nothing to worry as i have a Philips LCD TV as my screen & it's a default monitor to the computer, so it doesn't know the colour settings etc.
3) being harsh now, get a new graphic's card as it maybe the goosed one in a million. Is it under warrenty if so shove it back to them & get it sorted, 9 times out of ten any fixes are exchanges anyway :)
Thanks for the help fella, I will set my monitor back to 60hz.
