What Could Cause Black Out?

Okay, I nearly blacked out this morning. I was hearing noises like as if it was static ringing in my head. My eye sight went completely black for a while when I was walking up the stairs (i could not see the steps) and i could feel the dizziness in my legs when walking. Once I fell to the ground by my moms door I could see again. It was crazy because last time I blacked out this year in March 31, I never had gotten fever. My whole stomach/chest area was sweating and my face was heated. I was wondering, how come when you are unconscious, your eye sight goes black and is it normal to hear noises and get fever?
