Frustrating Computer Problem, PLEASE HELP!!!?

Question

When I start my computer I log on then I wait for my computer to load then I start internet and look at my mail or something like that. Well my computer acts normal and I do the normal things except around 5 minutes after it starts the monitor automatically shuts off. It says "Automatic power saving shut off" and it shows a blank black screen.

I then restart and the same thing happens again. This has happened so many times that I know if its going to happen or not. When it starts to happen I try to stop it by pressing Ctrl + ALT + Delete but it doesnt work!

Please help me! I dont know what to do.

PS. I do not know if I have Automatic power shutting off mode on or off because when the monitor shuts off its only the monitor...not the keyboard or the mouse or the CPU.

PLEASE HELP ME!!! I AM WILLING TO GIVE 10 POINTS TO YOU!!!

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH! I REALLY DO APPRECIATE IT!

Answer 1

i don't think it has anything to do with the software or Ctrl+Alt+Del

if the monitor is kinda old it's normal to act like this, because it overheats and it turns off. Maybe you should get a new one... i dunno; that's my opinion!

Answer 2

check the setting of your monitor and turn off power saver.

Answer 5

Go into control panel, click power options, and see if th emonitor setting is set to turn itself off. This could be the problem. It sounds like a setting to me.

Answer 6

Right click on the desktop, go to Properties, and then go to the Screen Saver tab. Under that, you should see a Power button. You might have a setting there that says shut down in 5 minutes, or something like that. If that is it, the setting could be in the BIOS, since each computer is different, I can't really help you there, but you could check that out too.
