Hi guys,

Finally got over the teething pains my 8k7a experienced initially
(mostly bios settings and slot configuration etc)

but one problem nags and remains and i wonder if any of u dudes has seens it!

when the computer goes into sleep mode, monitor goes off etc.. and then
when i come in to wake it up by wiggling the mouse or hitting esc
about 1 out of every 5 times or so, the screen comes up with a bunch
of gibberish on it, kinda like if u took the horizontal hold on your
old tv and cranked it all the way to one side, just a bunch of jumbled lines.

don't know why it does this, it does it every single time, if it goes to
sleep while quake is running but one out of five or so, it'll do it just
when the desktop is up.

Any ideas?

acpi enabled etc in bios

I can't even get mine to use Suspend to RAM... The standby feature doesn't show up in Win 2000's Power Options even tho I have it enabled in BIOS. Hibernate support doesn't even show up. Big surprise from the KT7 I used to have...
