Hello,

What kind of computer is it? Has this just started happening, or been doing this for a while now? What OS version?

I notice that my Powerbook will fade the screensaver away, and work just fine. Waking up from sleep can be a problem once in a while. Also noticed that when I would power the computer off, my desktop picture would kinda fade and the colors be eaten up. That happened under 10.2 10.3 robustly shuts down now.
