I am using XP home SP2 on Gateway Solo laptop. For quite a while now, when I
move the screen back & forth on the hinge, the screen will black out (no
backlight) & then come back. Seems like a physical connection problem but I
don't know what connection to look for.
Just replaced hard drive & reloaded, so unless XP home has an inherent
problem, cannot see this as a software issue.
Everything else works fine EXCEPT, screen will not turn off (power options)
after allotted time & if screen saver time delay (say 3 mins) is longer than
"turn off monitor" time (2 mins), screensaver will not come on at all.
I want it to go black when asked & stay on when working. Is that to much to
ask?
