Hi.

I have recently been encountering a strange issue with my Aurora-R2.

At random times the screen will cut to black and ONLY holding down ctrl-alt-del for about 5 seconds will bring it back.

While the screen is blank the system remains functioning, sounds still play, movies continue.

No amount of moving the mouse or typing on the keyboard will bring it back (apart from the ctrl-alt-del)

In researching the issue many suggestions I have seen say update the video drivers (done) or try reinstalling windows (attempted)

When I attempted reinstalling windows the CD boots to the "windows is loading files" screen appears, completes that, then the screen goes blank and a restart is required as holding ctrl-alt-del does nothing.

Has anyone exprienced this issue and found a solution or can recommend another step to try?

Cheers.

Michael.
