Default Screen saver

I'm using Win 98SE and with all updates. Recently I have noticed that with
the screen saver used, blank screen with single word scrolling across the
screen, after some while, perhaps a couple of hours with no use of desktop,
the PC goes into a sleep mode which will not ' wake' up. I have to crash to
restart!

I have tried removing the scrolling word but no difference. I do not have
anything else invoked.

Help please for a steer.
Brett

check your power saving features in your BIOS and in control panel
