blank screen

[47vinny]

hi all

hope some bright spark can help! i have a toshiba laptop, if i don`t touch the keyboard for say 20mins the screen goes blank and i have to close down the pc to restart everything, when the screen is blank the hard drive light is blinking away, so i presume the pc is working ok, i just cannot see anything on the screen, i have wake on keyboard enabled in the bios-any ideas?


thanks
vinny

Check power saving options under screen saver settings

turn off hibernate in power options, sometimes hibernation just hangs and leaves you with a balnk screen regardless of keypresses and such.
