    You have it set to hibernate. Go to your power settings in the control panel.

In XP, under the Control Panel, go into "Power Options." ON the "Power Schemes" tab, choose never for "Turn off monitor," "Turn off hard disks," and "System standby.: Then on the "Hibernate" tab, uncheck "enable hibernation." That oughta do it! :0)

Either you have your screen saver or hibernation set to do that, or there is something wrong with your system. Change your settings and run an anti-virus program.
