Does it shut off the screen while the computer is being used?  or while the computer is sitting at idle?

Check the power management option in control panel.. make sure you set "Turn off monitor" to "never".  See what that does for you

Good luck

My old comp had 256 RAM and I was running AH fine with 256 textures and everything at the bare minimum and would pull out strong 55 FR.
