I have, for the last couple months, been experiencing an interesting issue. I do not know if it is monitor related of if it is a graphics card issue. Anyhow, my screen will go blank for about 2 seconds randomly and come right back on with no other problems, when it does this I get my typical box that says "dvi connected" or something like that on the screen once it comes back on. It has happened in both windows 7 and vista, and I cant seem to recreate the event it is very random. Unfortunately I do not have another monitor to hook up to see if the event occurs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have the same issue. I play WoW and there are times I can play for hours with no problems but then I can have this blank screen issue show up several times within a few minutes and then gone again. I'm sure we're not using the same monitor or computer and I have been keeping my Nvidia drivers up-to-date. Have anyone found out what the cause is?
