dragon_677 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 When I read a thread for a while the screen usually turns black until I go to another page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jun Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Statement or was it a question? That is pretty odd, but all i can tell you that it should have NOTHING to do with the site.. here are my ideas 1. Your computer goes on stand-by mood 2. You should check your VIRUS protection 3. If you have Dial-up, check into that too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane for Wax Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Sounds like a case of screensaverness. Why are you staring at one page for so long? Are there threads that are sooo interesting that your screensaver pops into effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unstream Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Does that occur on every site or just TDNF? And if you move your mouse does it remove the blackness or do you need to reload the page? And is the the whole screen or just within the window? Try this for me, when the page turns black, try moving your mouse to see anything, and hit spacebar or some random keys a couple times and tell me if that fixes it.

Shane for Wax Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Exactly, computing 101. First move the mouse to check for a screensaver, then do everything that was said earlier. If that still doesn't fix it, you may have a virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
