I have been useing the regular output cable for the monitor with no problems. I wanted the best quality so I switched over to the DVI cable. Hooked it in and stared up my pc, went online for about 20 min. then my screen went blank and said No Signal. Restarted and its fine for another 20 min or so. My monitor is a Princeton 19" lcd, My video card is a ATI Radion 9250 with a DVI output, S-video, and regular monitor output. I tryed all the power settings, set them to allways on and to never turn off. Turned off my screensaver. What should I do now? Thanks
 
So it's fine with VGA? Try setting it to clone and having two displays going at once. A TV would even work. See if it messes up that way too, and if both screens go out, or just the DVI.
 
Ok, when my monitor go's out, I can switch my TV to video 2 (connected to my video card S-video) and I can see the computer screen perfect. VGA works perfect, no problems.
