What is the common demoninator that effects all the computers your trying??
Are you always using the same monitor and the same monitor cable
Are they completely giving you a new computer every time??
Why don't you have them run it at the shop and see what's causing the problem before you take it?
Or it could possibly be something your installing

Does it always happen after you use this cd?
What are your power options set to
Screen saver enabled?
Hibernate?
What make and model of computer is this?
