Getting major flashing/flickering/missing textures in certain games after resuming from sleep

Games that are ok after sleep:
- AOC
- Crysis Warhead
- Rainbow Six Vegas 2

Games that have this problem:
- Lord of the Rings Online
- Valve's Orange Box, every game


CAT 8.9 Official
Palit 4870x2
Windows Vista x64 w/SP1 (fresh install)


Only way to stop this behaviour is to restart the computer. After that works perfectly.
Anyone else getting this?
 
I've noticed something similar.

I do not know if it has anythin to do with my monitor or not but when the 4870x2 goes to sleep and wake up i notice some "waviness" even if i'm just in windows desktop.

I remedied this by switching resolution to something other than what i normally use and then switch it back, after a few min after its been asleep.

I believe this may have had something to do with me using a VGA - DVI adapter for my monitor, now that I use a straight DVI adapter it doesn't happen anymore - or at least i do not notice it.

It's pretty bizarre - I know.
 
Same thing here. Vista Ultimate 64bit. Go into CCC and disable Catalyst AI. Relaunch your game and the problem will go away. BUT you probably want Catalyst AI enabled to take advantage of what it offers.

What are your specs?

good to hear it just isnt me. whenever my computers off for a while or just left there for an hour or two, pretty much no screen activity, i experience waviness at the top of the screen. This is not just in windows, but also in the bios, etc. Im also using a dvi-vga adapter and never experience this until after i updated my drivers to 8.9, but it confuses me since the drivers are only for windwos and the waviness still exists in the bios. Any know whats the problem?
