Do you still have audio after it goes into power saving mode?

Some programs don't interact with Windows while in game. So while you are playing them, Windows thinks the computer is idle. After a bit of time, Windows will do what ever it is set to do, after it has been idle for a period of time.

So, you can try right-clicking your desktop, choose "Screen Saver", then choose "Power Options". In there, set your Hard Disk, Hibernation and Sleep modes to "NEVER".

Let us know if that takes care of it.

Re: gaming problem help

In addition to the above, make sure you post your system specs, especially your graphics card and PSU (Power Supply Unit).
