I was running my comp last night and went to take a shower, came back and the monitors Light was yellow instead of blue...... which meant it had no imput. So I forced restart, and all is good, it has happened twice more today.... I have a 1 year old built in MX440 nvidia any help? cheers, Gunny

You sure it has no input? Is it in hibernate mode?

Sometimes you have to double check that stuff. Mine all of a sudden started shutting down after 10-15 mins. of idle time. Had to go reset it back to what I had it set at. Don't know what changed it, but it had been changed.

Go figrue..............gremlins!  ::)

Comps hit the fan... everything has slowed down and it takes about a minute for my pages to load on the net.... and not because of net, because the comp cant load em for some reason. Everytime I open apps the comp freezes and I have restarted.... the CPU Usage is between 14 and 54 non stop as of now and no apps are running that kill my CPU. Any ideas? I'm guessing the graphics went or is on its last and the comp cant hold togethor..... Cheers, in need of help, Gunny

At one time long ago my old machine ran fine. Then I updated Windows ME, which I no longer run and man did I ever have problems when I tried using the Hibernate feature. Don't know what it was and never got it resolved.

Needless to say, I disabled the hibernate feature.

Hope it all gets worked out for ya Gunny04.

Yep.... works like a charm. XP must have similar problem... anyways I ran CFS3 today to test that, runs fine, as does everything else! Cheers, Gunny
