DPMS Mode Off just sounds like something a monitor might say when it has no signal.
Random reboots can be a thousand issues:
Bad RAM
Bad Motherboard
Bad Processor
Software Issue
Computer Overheating.
Take your pick. We need more info, and you probably will still have to narrow it down a bit on your own.

Well after reading 20 pgs of useless stuff I kinda found out what it is. It's a thing energystar made to conserve energy when a comp is idle. Why it would be doing this while I play games is beyond me. We called Tech support but i did something wrong when I went to some screen afyer restart. It was oviously there since there was like GPMS lol. Tech supporsadi I must of put it on Off mode

Yeah. I always turn off energy saving features whenever possible. They seem to cause more problems then fixes.

Energysaver turnoff? Let me check... (will edit later)
OK, if it's your monitor, do this:
Go to control panel
Open "Display"
Go to "screen saver"
Click on "Power"
Look under "Settings for *** power scheme" and set all of those to "Never"
That SHOULD fix the problem. Let us know if it doesn't.
