    Check your graphics hardware acceleration. Whenever this would happen to me that was the problem.

    Mine was related to the cpu overheating during any sort of accelerated graphics. This was because I had the system set up to shut off at a specific temp to avoid damage.

    It would crash the monitor, going black with my power button on the monitor blinking.
    I could hear pol in the background but it had logged out of the game and into the lobby area instead.
    I got some cooling gel/lube plus heat sync in a kit from new egg. Also replaced my vid card later but up to that point I had this desk fan jerry-rigged into a ghetto cooling set up that worked fine.

    Apparently I can get into FF through POL but I cant get into FF through windower.
