Something weird had started to happen with my computer recently. It doesn't happen all the time, but enuff to be annoying.

After being idle for a little while (note: this doesn't always happen, it is pretty random) the monitor goes black and the computer cannot be turned off or reset... and nothing can be done with the monitor, unplugging doesn't work, etc.

My net connection (cable) also goes down when this happens.

I have to turn the PSU off to restart the computer.

Any ideas on what's wrong and how it can be fixed?
 
Your hard drive is probably going into sleep mode and cannot be re-activated

Control panel
power options
turn off hard disks: NEVER

enable a screen saver
