Vista - Burning to DVD from DVD Maker Problem

I am having a problem when burning to a DVD using Windows DVD Maker.

When I click the burn button, the burning process begins immediatly, and
lasts for a few minutes. After about 10-15 minutes, my screen goes black, and
when it comes back on, it tells me there was a display driver error, and that
it has been sucessfully restored.

However, with this problem occuring, it cancels the burning process.

I have tried updating the display driver, and it claims I have the
up-to-date version.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Do you by any chance have a screen saver? I'd say disable the screen saver,
and set your power settings to not remove power to the disks and monitor for
at least an hour...

Yes, i have tried that. It still makes no difference to the error.

I'm not sure what else to say, but you're not the only one with this
problem. I've asked Microsoft so if I get any good info back, I'll post it
here...
