i wanted to play morrowind , but after 15 mins or so my monitor just turns off, for no reason?

happens to me too with just about any.. graphics taxing game. Apparently a quick fix is to take a sidepanel off of your tower and point a floor fan at your graffix card which is probably overheating, or so i was told.

maybe your monitor is switching to energy-saving?

Sounds like a video card problem what kind of GPU do you have in your computer?
