A7V133 LOCKING UP AFTER LEAVING RUN IDLE FOR A WHILE

[CRATER]

I HAVE A A7V133 MOBO, ATHLON TBIRD 850, WINDOWS ME.
I HAVE BIOS 1002A INSTALLED
I HAVE VIA 4IN1 428V INSTALLED
WHEN I LEAVE MY SYSTEM RUN AND LEAVE IT FOR A WHILE AND COME BACK IT IS LOCKED UP LIKE IT WENT INTO SLEEP MODE OR STANDBY OR SOMETHING BUT I CANT GET IT TO COME BACK UP.
I HAVE WENT INTO THE SCREEN SAVER OPTION AND SET THE MONITOR TO SHUT DOWN AFTER 15 MINUTES, THE HARD DRIVES TO NEVER, THE STANDBY TO NEVER.

CAN ANYONE HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM?

THANKS

What OS are you running? win98/2000/what?? It may be your settings in bios for Power Management, or acpi.

I believe I put it on the message but it is WINDOWS ME

Ok here is another little piece of info.
I set my monitor option in screen saver to never go off now and it will stay running but I still need to figure out a full fix for the problem if anyone can help.

thanks

You need to check power managment both in the bios and in the settings for the monitor in windows. Probably your hardware is not compatible with the sleep mode.

look to see if there is vga wake up to enable in the bios power settings
