XP Pro system hangs during screen saver

I have a problem of the system going "dead" after a period of being in screen saver. When this happens the keyboard and mouse are unresponsive and the hard disk light is on. The recovery is a complete power shutdown and repower.

I'll give some system info off the top of my head. If there is a way to get a generated profile I appreciate that info as well.

ABIT KT7A-RAID using two 40G as one 80G. No mirroring. AMD Tbird at 1430, 256 RAM, ATI All-In-Wonder Radeon 32, Latest ATI driver from their site, XP Pro upgrade

Need more info? Just ask. TIA, Doug (a user)
 
For a generated profile, go to Belarc .

Is your bios up to date? What is your cpu temperature?

Also, clean install is much better than an upgrade. Fewer problems.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
