Hi - Ill start off with sys specs:
os: windows 8.1 64bit
cpu: amd fx-8350
ram: adata xpg v1.0 series 16gb (2 x 8gb)
hdd: samsung 840 pro series
psu: corsair rm850
vga: xfx double dissipation r9-290x-edfd radeon r9 290x
Display Driver: amd-catalyst-14-9-win7-win8.1-64bit-dd-ccc-whql.exe
mobo: asus sabertooth 990fx r2.0
this is running on dual monitor setup.. and using DVI cabling.
running into a bit of trouble with a new vid card.
I just installed the R9 290x last friday..
The install went fine, I removed my old cards, installed the new card, removed the drivers, installed updated drivers.. played games, etc..
Next day, monitor says no signal, so reboot, play games, etc.. next day, monitor says no signal.. i move the mouse, hit enter on keyboard.. mobo beeps, one long beep, 3 short beeps.. (VGA FAIL) reboot, beeps again, reboot beeps again,, let it sit for 10m, then reboot and i have VGA signal..
I have my monitor to turn off after 20m of no activity.. screensaver comes on after 10m of no activity, nothing unusual here... typical pc settings..
so last night i did a full wipe of display drivers and disabled ULPS, this morning, no signal.. reboot, beeps right away, wait 10m, boots up fine.
ive done a lot of searching regarding the no wake up issue, i see alot of threads on it... is there a real fix for this..? Or should i follow through with the RMA and try a dif. card?
If I set my screensaver to start after 1m and turn off monitor after 5m and come back in 15m its fine.. it really only seems like it doesnt wake if i check it the next day.. it will not wake if the PC is idle for 5+ hrs. I do not have my PC set to sleep in power mgmt settings.. just screensaver and turn off monitor.
i did not have this issue with my 7870s CF.. but the driver was definately not the latest either..
thanks,
