This is a weird one.

Anyways, I use two computers most of the time. A PC at work running XP and my laptop running Windows 7.

For the past 2 or 3 weeks, the screens on both of these computers are going blank for maybe 10 seconds and they start working again. I don't think it's a screen fault per say as the backlight seems to be on when it happens.

Has this happened to anyone else.

Have Windows given out a dubious windows update for both XP and 7 which is causing this ?
