Question 1 - I notice it happening when I am working on it so it is while I
am clicking on
things in a program.
Question 2 - It happens with all programs. So that's why I made sure energy
saver was off.
Question 3 - The computer is quiet no chattering noise....
its working though like its trying to find something
Question 4 - No watch is displayed...just the normal mouse cursor and I can
move it all
around during this time, just can't click on anything. The
items that I did
click on during this period will all of a sudden and activate
once the quiet
period is over with.

Does this "nap" begin after you click on something on your desktop or while
you're just reading something on the screen ?
Is this related to the use of any particular software, or does it happen
randomly, without regard to what you're running ?
Is your Hard Drive spinning and making chattering noise during this "wait"
or is the computer quiet ?
Does it display "the watch" during this period or nothing at all ?
Need more info... >>
