Windows screensaver crashes game

everytime I leave the game for a while and my screensaver kicks in, so that I have to log in to my user, when I return the game is totally black, and I have to forcequit it (CTRL-ALT_DEL) to exit. Kinda frustrating when I have played for two hours straight without saving.... all lost.
I have WIN XP by the way.

Guess I have to change my screensaver/system sleep settings, but anyway....

Hello,
I have the same problem.
The game is still running because I can click on the window and it sounds but no graphics. Black window.

Windows XP SP3
CPU Q9550
3 Gb RAM
Ati Radeon 4870

Regards,
