Hello,

My screen goes black, like a screen saver might do, when I watch movies or shows on hulu.com. If I wiggle the mouse it comes right back. I've looked for settings for this and have found none. My screen saver is set for a particular image for 120 minutes and it never shows up so it isn't that. Anyone have any idea?

Vista Ultimate/HP Pavilion

Thanks,
Daniel
