Sometimes when I am viewing a web page with Internet Explorer my monitor goes black and I get the message INVALID SIGNAL. My comp then stops responding and I have to cut the powere to switch it off. This only occurs when I am using Internet Explorer, any ideas what is causing this ?

if you gaze too long into a BIOS, the BIOS gazes also into you.

I would love to blame IE for a lot of ills...and I usually do....but this is bizarre! Have you tried different video resolutions, color depths, and refresh rates just for the heck of it?

I have noticed that this problem only occurs with certain web sites. And even then it dosent always happen. Since I posted the first message it hasnt happened. I have tried different res, and colors but its hard to tell if it makes any difference because of the infrequency of the problem.

Do you have IE 5.01 with all the patches?
