yes it is full screen and yes 3 is selected.
after playing around i am able to recreate the black screen issue. by going into the driver settings and taking the anistropic filtering off of forced 16x and on to "use application setting" it will produce a black screen/freeze everytime for me. changing any other setting to application setting causes no issues.

i'm certainly no expert but this would seem to imply that it is an application issue would it not?
No, it's just because forcing anisotropic filtering lower the GPU load When you unforce it, the load goes up the roof, and there you have the bug. That's why, before, the test ran fine : you forced the load to stay under 82A with this setting.

Great finding, that's something new i haven't think of !
