T42 / RADEON 9600 Dual Monitor Crashing Issue

#1 Post by GregM » Wed Oct 08, 2008 7:50 pm

Friends,

I am having a pesky issue that I cannot for the life of me get rid of. I am running a dual monitor setup on my T42 at the office. But every time I leave it for a period of time, I come back and it has crashed. The screen on the laptop is HUGE and there is an error message visible. I have tried to update the driver, but it appears I am running the latest one v. 6.14.10.6547

What else can I do? I am sick and tired of having to reboot each time after I walk away for a couple of minutes.

Thanks!
Greg

easy... don't go awy from the desk...
seriously now - it crashes ONLY when you leave the T42 unattended or evenduring work?
try deactivating screen savers and "turn monitor off" options from the power saving menu
ex: T30, TR451, TR453, R51, R52, X40, X60, R61, T400
X200 - P8600 2.66Ghz, 3G, 250G
G50-70 - 3558U 2.4Ghz, 4G, 1T
