I bought a 12mHz AT clone system recently.  It came with a Orchid EGA and
color monitor, 640k RAM, 40mB HD, a 1.2mB and a 360K floppy drive.

I can't figure out what seems to be the problem but the monitor blanks out
on me once in a while.  The program I was running was still running (I
guess), because it responded (at least for the sound) to the keyboard
command I keyed in.  The only way to solve this problem right now for me
was to reset the system.  It killed me when I was in the process of some
transaction.

Is there anybody who can tell me what I can do to solve the problem?
Please reply to me for any information on this, thanks.
