So lately Ive been having a problem where I wake the computer up from sleep and the monitor essentially stays asleep. Each time it happens I have to unplug and replug the DVI cable and the display comes back. I think the computer is awake and everything but the display doesnt get the message. What is the issue? Driver? Windows problem? Hardware problem? What? Let me know! Thanks. :D

You probably meant to post this in the Computer Help forums section. But an offhand guess it might be something as simple as a bad monitor cable. You might want to try buying/borrowing another DVI cable and see if that fixes the problem.
