A couple times today my macbook Pro screen randomly went black while I was actively using the computer. I could still hear my music so I know that it didn't turn off. It took awhile to get the screen to come back on. Its old from mid 2009 so I'm worried about it. (it is running Yosemite)
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
