Twice this week I have been online playing poker and suddenly the screen goes blank I can hear the game going on so I'm not disconnected. Turn off turn back on and back. Any ideas?

Caress your computer. Stroke it. Kiss it. Hump it even. Make it feel like one of the family. Though not your wife's family.

Grahics drivers are usually at the heart of these problems,no video but sound is a strong pointer

It's not the screen saver kicking in if you don't touch it for a minute or so is it?

Joel in real life I'm quite a bright bloke but I dont know what a screen saver kicking in means

Joel,that is possible,as is if the power settings for the monitor are to shut down if idle,as with all computers could be one of many things

I mean does it happen when you're using the mouse, or does it only seem to happen say if you dont touch the mouse or keyboard for a minute or something like that

Cant see that its a delay like that. I haven't been monitoring what I do by the second but basically I'm on a poker screen and clicking "fold" a lot. ( I'm cautious early doors) and clicking back on to the forum for ....hmmm entertainment.
