Screen Saver Freeze

Hi,

I am having a problem where my screen freezes up in screen saver mode. It seems like my computer is still functioning though. This happens when I move the mouse to get out of screen saver mode

I had a different problem with my nvida driver in the past and had to reload it. Could this be a problem with the driver? How can I fix this? Everytime this happens I have to turn the power off, which isn't good.

Thanks.

Hi, it could very likley be your nvidia driver. TO update this driver run Windows Update. If that doesnt find what you need go to the nvidia site.

www.nvidia.com

If youor not sure where to go/what to get, tell me what your card is and i will help you :).

Thanks T. I downloaded the driver. It'll take a little while to if it works. I'm good for now.

Take care,
