Hi Shawn
Yes, I have installed latest monitor driver.
I turn off the monitor manually and I can't see anything in the
controls about sleep mode.
It's at the point now that to get the display to come on I have to
turn the computer off at the power supply, leave it for a minute or
two then restart and then turn on the display right after I hear the
first beep. Sometimes I have to do this several times. After it starts
it works fine until I try to restart.
Do you think reinstalling vista would help?
Thank you
wwp
