I'm running XP home and when I try to play a game that I have on my hard
drive it will only play a very short time (3 - 4) seconds then it's like it
goes into hibernation. But hibernation is "NOT" activated .I get a message
that there is "no signal response". My computer keep's running but my display
goes out. At that point I have to restart my computer. I have no problem's
playing on line or playing DVD'S / CD'S.
