Ugggh! why does this keep happening!
My computer screen keeps going blank like after 20 minutes or so. It doesn't say it's going on standby or that it's hibernating. The screen just shuts off. The computer remains on but the screen goes blank.
I am totally  right now...

Re: Ugggh! why does this keep happening!
Do you have to actually turn the power back on?

It's so strange...the screen just goes blank yet the computer is still on cuz I still the yellow light thingy that indicates it's on. So I then hold the power button down then the computer goes off. Then I press it down again and the computer goes on again...

Re: Ugggh! why does this keep happening!
arrrrrrrrrr! It just happened again...
I checked my screensaver options and have none...so it can't be that. when the screen goes blank the computer is still on and nothing I press makes it go back on until I shut the whole thing off and then on again...and then 20 or 30 minutes later the whole thing happens again...

Re: Ugggh! why does this keep happening!
Well I just called Dell and they said I have to send the computer off to the them cuz they said it sounds like a system bolt...Something internal
When I move the computer around it shuts off...So something is screwy...
