Before I updated my video card, the D3 demo worked fine.
Now when I attempt to play, my monitor goes into sleep. I can only awake my monitor if I press Alt F4 or restart the system.
I rolled back the driver. It still won't work.
Quake 4 and Half-Life plays fine. I have no clue what's wrong.
Does anyone know why I receive this problem?

*Edit*
The sound still plays in the background.

Sounds like the game is trying to go to a screen resolution or refresh rate which your monitor can't support.

yeah. I figured out the problem last night. I just had to edit the doomconfig file.
I changed fullscreen to 0. And then accessed the game, went to system. And then changed the resolution.
