I took everyones advice and installed windows 98 upgrade 2nd edition yesterday. I was needing USB ports and was advised to do this first. The installion went great. Problem: When I leave the PC for about 20 to 30 minutes, the monitor cuts off by itself. You can wiggle the mouse and it's back on. It never did this before the installation. It does it everytime now. I reset my screensaver to 5 minutes and it comes on, but in the time frame above, it cuts off. What's going on? Thanks.

Its no biggie really. Simply go into the power managment (>control panel>>power mgmt) and change the timing for monitor shut off.

You can adjust it to whatever time you want, or have it stay on constantly.
