I need help
liverbird:
Not sure if anyone can help but is it possible for a game to make a monitor lose connection with the computer ie goes blank with message no connection... This only happens while playing sims 2 for about 5mins.. Any help would be great..
I also have a question I have a file called cigen in my sims 2 folder which is located in my documents folder does anyone know what it is or does & do I need it..

Sounds a bit what happened on my laptop... It went black at random times, often when playing sims. Had it repaired when I couldn't even turn it on. Not sure what caused it, though.
The computer is still on, but the screen goes blank? You can't even get the Task manager up? (you get it up by pressing Ctrl + alt + delete)
liverbird:
Yeah thats right only way to turn it off is by holding power button half in for 3secs.. When I turn it back on the monitor works again very strange started happening last week never happened before after all the years I have been playing sims including on this computer for last 2 years...

I don't think it's a problem with the sims, but rather a hardware problem. It could be a few different things. It could be a symptom of your video card overheating or not being seated properly. It could be a sign you need to update your drivers, or that your PSU isn't working properly.
liverbird:
But how come it only happens when I'm playing sims.. I have just done a driver update search & it updated my graphic card driver even though I only updated it last month.. I'll see if that works...
