I either use default safe or default optimized. When I walk away and return 15 minutes later the screen's blank. I move the mouse, click the mouse, press the enter key, sometimes do the vulcan nerve pinch. The 3 finger pinch occasionally works but less than 50% of the time it won't wake and I need to reset.
Also, when I cold boot I need to reset right afterwards to actually see something happen. Otherwise the on/off case light just blinks and the 4 lights on the motherboard stay red. What's with that?
Lastly, this board sees my 30 gig Maxtor as a 20 gig. This has been the same even through to my bios install of .10g

I already got an RMA from my supplier and will ship back Monday if I can't clear this up. Of course I'll lose 15% plus shipping. Maybe I should just sell this board to someone who can make it behave.

Thanks.
