    Hi,

    When playing any games, the LCD backlight of my A8JP turns off after 10-15 minutes. I can turn the backlight on again by changing the LCD brightness level. However, this keeps reoccurring again anywhere between 1-5 minutes. I have tripple checked the power settings in control panel, selected different profiles in Power4Gear, changed the settings of the profiles, and even turned off Power4Gear.

    Under Windows, the backlight will stay on (I have set the LCD to stay on on AC). It stays on when I'm watching movies. It only happens if I try to play games.

    I'm running the OEM Windows XP MCE.

    Any advice :confused:
