August,

I tried moving the mouse, pressing a Shift key while the screen was
dark the times it happened, but just had to wait for the computer to
send something to the screen.

Jean made a test and didn't see the same thing I did, so last night I
turned off the monitor as the XP box was hibernating and when I turned
it on today I didn't get a dark screen.

I guess it's just that wierd things happen to me and not to others.

AA>That should make no difference.  I often start the Hibernate and power the

Thanks for answering my message.  Much Appreciated!
