"Sleep" Mode problems in Windows 7

[SiliconValley]

I'm up and running Windows 7 64-bit and loving it so far. My only problem is that I can't seem to get the "sleep" mode to work properly. When I put the computer into sleep mode it goes to sleep but when it tries to wake back up I just get a black screen (although the computer itself comes back on). Anyone else having this issue or know of a resolution?

Dunno. Haven't tried to Sleep my laptop. Will try later when I get home. Just remember to submit feedback to MS about the issue.

My sleep's working fine on a heavily OC'd P5Q-E. x64 FYI

Have you tried the 185.20 drivers for your video card? I had that problem using the 181 drivers, and when I installed 185, it solved that issue.

My sleep works as well on my laptop. Inspiron 1420. C2D 2.2GHz, 4GB RAM, 8400M with the latest beta notebook drivers right from NV.

Open device manager and make sure you don't have hardware w/o drivers. I had an issue with sleep with Windows 7 that was resolved after installing the latest chipset driver from my motherboard manufacturer.
