I posted before that I was getting blue screens on boot up, wake up, sleep, and shut down. I replaced my memory and seem to have fixed that problem.

But one pesky problem still remains. Sometimes, when I try to wake the machine, everything seems to wake , I hear fans and such, but the video never comes back. I finally have to push the reset button.

Any clue here? Once up and running, I have no problems at all.

Does this sound like a motherboard problem?

I don't know the answer, but know that you're not alone. None of my computers resume properly. The one I'm using right now doesn't have any working USB ports on resume, and my last gaming computer had no video on resume.

I got about 6 months out of this system without these problems. Since then, I guess there have been a bunch of bios upgrades, hardware upgrades, software upgrades, etc,

Its very frustrating. I guess I'll wait until something fails 100% or I can't take it anymore before I try replacing more parts.
