I just bought this computer a few days ago from Facebook Marketplace and it was working perfectly until now. I was in the middle of a gaming session when my screen froze. After that, it started blinking—turning off and on repeatedly every 30 seconds. It goes black if I try to move the mouse. Should I take it to a PC shop for repairs?

Funny thing is, right after I posted, my computer restarted and everything seemed fine. But now I'm super confused! Is there a way to figure out what caused the problem and how to prevent it in the future?
Classic reboot fashion! But really, the first rule of Computer Club is just to try rebooting it. Although, if you've already done that multiple times along with changing power cords and display cables, it sounds like it's something else going on.
You might want to try using DDU to uninstall your graphics drivers and then reinstall them. It's a common fix for issues like this and could help solve the blinking problem.
