im having a problem playing games on steam (DoD and CS). What it is, is that when i try playing in opengl just after ive connected to a server my monitor shuts off as if it is on standby, and it wont come back on unless i reboot my pc. To solve this i tried chaging it to D3D but it just crashes completely when i connect. ive tried changing resolution and that doesnt work. it workd when i had a TNT2 Ultra graphcs card and Win98SE but it wont work now ive got: WinXP SP2 and an ATI Sapphire Radeon 9600 pro advantage ddr dvi card.

Any ideas???

thanks in advance
