Don't know if anyone else has had this happen.

I'm running windows xp pro, with service pack 1, have all the latest critical updates.

Also using a radeon 9700 pro, the latest catalyst 3.2's, and the latest control panel.

For some reason lately, in the middle of playing a game of CS or whatever, sometimes the monitor will just turn off, and say "out of range".
Other times just turn off and say nothing.
Other times just freeze the whole comp.

I went ahead and reformatted and reinstalled xp.
All to no avail.
Figured I'd post here as a last attempt to see if anyone else has been having any sort of similar trouble.
Thanks in advance

By 'out of range', I think it means that you set your refresh rate too high. Right click on your desktop, properties, settings, advanced, monitor, lower it there.
