I'm wondering if anyone has any idea on how to solve this issue:

 

- Screen goes black for .5-2 seconds.

-Monitor light stays on.

-ONLY happens when web browsing/excel/Ms Word

-Radeon HD 8770m w/ Intel 4000 Graphics card. Using a 24 Inch Asus Monitor attached with a HDMI to a Samsung Ativ Book 8. I am pretty sure this happens while the Intel Integrated graphics is running.

-Windows 8 64 bit

-I am 99% sure it's a software issue because this NEVER happens while gaming or watching a movie.

 

Anyone got any ideas? Is chrome having some compatibility issues with AMD as of late?

It could be happening because it switches between integrated and the other GPU...
