Black screen at TIMES after starting back up.
I'm using Win 7 Home Premium on my Asus desktop and am not a PC expert but managed to get things so that after 15 minutes, it either sleeps or hibernates ( not sure which it's called ) in a way where the power usage goes down to about 6 watts and the monitor screen shuts off too. ( I think the HD shuts down too ) Then when I come back and click the left mouse button, I can hear some kind of motor start back up in the PC and it takes me to my password screen, I enter it and go back to what I'm doing, without the need to reboot. I like it this way.
But SOMETIMES, instead of waking up like that, I just get a black screen and nothing - no way at all to wake it up. I have to shut off the power at the UPS, turn it on, then do a complete reboot from the power on switch.
Is this a flaw in Win 7 that it does that sometimes?
