I experience intermittent black screen (loss of screen picture) and accompanied by a loud humming sound in my LCD screen when playing with Plants versus Zombies.

This happens even when i am even running the game using XP Mode.

I have to turn off the PC power-off.
Reboot and in Safe Mode
Then shut down my PC
Warm start again the PC.

This is kinda irratting and frustrating with the game and [could damage myPC?]

Please advise. Thanks much!

Hi avianquest - Welcome to w7forums

I merged your two post, also making the change from the second post about the game title for you so it is less confusing to others.

I wish I could help further, however I am not a gamer.
