This is a simple solution, or one of a few you COULD use, here we go:
Open Control Panel.
Double Click Power Management.
Change Turn off monitor to Never.
Click Apply, OK.
Optionally if you dont want your hard drive going to "sleep" you could change that option to Never as well. Let me know how this works for you

Yes, there are no win 98 patches for the above problem. There are however ones for if your hard-drive powers down and windows wont power it back up. I guess they didnt think a patch to make your video come back to life was necessary. Just disabling that option will fix the problem anyways.
