Actually I think it is in the install.

I believe that there might be some bad video drivers on it. What seems to be happening is that the system is going into sleep mode and turning the video off and cannot turn it back on.

Usually this is caused by bad or not current video drivers.

One way to fix this is to turn the system to never turn the video off.

Someone else might have a better explanation but I think this is a video driver issue.

Hi folks

Hope I am not tiring you...To be short, my computer (ASUS P4S800D-X), WIndows XP Pro, 3 Giga memory... You all know, I had troubles with it. At one point it would not boot. Went to the shop. They kept if for many days then said that the problem was that my Pentium 4 was heating too much. I found another Pentium 4. Exchanged it. They bought the computer back, working...

Had to start all programs and all...(what a pain). Now...if I leave it on (I am not sure for how long before this happens, perhaps hours) when I come back the green light and the HD red light are ON, not moving. The monitor is receiving some sign because it is green...but the screen is black. Nothing I can do to makes it work...

I have to put it off... If I re-start right way... it will go to a black screen and will not start. It seems that I have to wait, 15 minutes, 30 minutos (to cool off?) for it to start. It then starts OK, no problem...

Where is the problem? Mobo, CPU, Memory?...

The fun never ends... Back to the shop?...

Thanks in advance.

Marcio
