Screen Saver Issue...more ?'s

message from =?Utf-8?B?SmVmZiBN?= on 7 Jun 2004
I have a problem with my computer also. What happens is that I go to preview any of the 3D built in screen savers it will freeze and then the screen goes blank, I have to either hit the power button to hibernate and awake or the standby key on my keyboard and awaken it again. It will wake back up in safe mode and my computer will then say "it detected and recoved from a device failure". On the screen with my screen saver preview box it will read "could not find any compatible Direct3D devices". I saw a few posts about it not being able to enter into standby or hibernate mode, but my ? is, is this the same problem or something different, and has anyone else had this problem. It never seems to happen unless my computer comes out of Standby or Hibernate mode, but I don't like to test it too much as I don't want to be constantly be restarting my tower. This is the second computer I have that has had the idential problem.
