I'm pretty new to this site and have been really impressed. Anyways, I have a Dell Dimension 4550 with XP and started having some monitor issues about a month ago. Since my monitor then was ancient, I decided to change monitors. However, after about a week or so I started having the same issues. Now, a friend let me try his monitor (which definitely works) and the same issues appear.
After a couple of days use, my moniotr will just black out as if I unplugged it. I'm forced to restart my computer and sometimes that works and othertimes it'll black out in a minute or so. Usually, then, I won't use my computer for a day and shut down and when I start up I get a few days, or sometimes a week, before the same issues occur.
Since this is a problem with my computer and not the monitor, does anybody have any idea on what is going on. My video drivers are up to date and I really have little clue at this point.
