      This happens during gameplay or?
      This may sound silly, but monitors can go black and come back on a sec later if you change the resolution.
      That is perfectly normal, but I don't think that's what you're refering to.

      Could give a litttle more info as to what type of monitor and vidcard you have. Also which dirver versions (for both).
      There's no place like 127.0.0.1

        This issue only happens when I am playing SubSpace, it has never happened in any other program. I have a 16MB VRAM Nvidia GeForce2 4X AGP video card. The System I have is a Sony Vaio PCV-RX370DS: 1.3GHz/ 128MB PC 800 RDRAM/ 60GB ATA Ultra 100/ 10/100 3COM 3C905C-TX-M Windows ME (I Know crappy) The monitor is a RIC 700 17". All The dirvers are updated and current... Like I said I am at a loss here...

            Thanks for the help People, it was the monitor... apparently the No Name RIC monitors blow goats. Looks like I need to save up for that 23" Apple Studio Display and the convertor so I can play SubSpace!!

            Thanks again...

              You can get a '19 inch monitor for 200 dollars now.

              I hate people who always need the best and the most out of everything.

              Be happy with what you have before the government takes it.
