Monitor goes black
« on: April 06, 2005, 11:08:46 PM »
ATI Radeon 9600 128 meg
6.14 drivers
Samsung 213T LCD monitor

Any video game after abot 2-3 minutessometimes less
the screen goes black and goes to desk-top.
Click on the task bar and instantly back in the game.

Checked all fans , uninstalled drivers video card , installed monitor software and made sure all is in sync.

The only glich I can see is in device manager under display adapters there are
Radeon 9600
Rasdeon 9600 secondary
Both are active.

Have tried uninstalling both for a fresh start but both keep coming back.

Sounds like a background program is causing the game to minimize.
