Hi

I just upgraded from a Radeon 9600 to the BFG 6800OC. This PC is in my living room hooked up to a 56" DLP. The problem is that when my computer wakes from suspend (S3), the screen is black and the computer is nonresponsive. This wasn't a problem with the 9600. I downloaded the newest drivers from Nvidia's website (66.93, I think) and still have the problem.

Any suggestions? I really need this PC to sleep when not recording TV or being used.

Thanks

I don't think your computer is getting enough power. What power supply do you have?

It's a 380W TruPower that came in the Antec Overture case.

Other power consumers are 2 HDD, 1 DVD-Rom, PVR250, M-Audio Revolution, P4 3.2 w/ Zalman 7000 HSF, and a case fan.

Really? I'm searching everywhere not really finding any info. Do you have any links or info on a fix?

That really sucks. I got a deal on the card, but I want my computer to sleep. I may have to take it back.
