Does the BIOS or drivers of P5W DH cause a Vista lockup?

I have the P5W DH Deluxe with an ATIX1900 graphics card and BIOS 1901. I installed all the recommended new drivers . With Vista Home Premium, when I return from Sleep mode, the computer locks up and I have to reboot which just causes a restore of the OS (takes 2x as long as a cold rebott). Anyone have this problem and a cure?

Solved!!

From the Asus board, someone had the same problem and it turned out to be the upgrade of the JMicron XP/VISTA SATA/RAID driver vers. 1.17.11 WHQL driver. I did this when I first set up my machine, but choose the IDE driver since I have an IDE hard drive. It turns out that choosing the SCSI driver solved the problem I was talking to the Microsoft Vista support person in India for 2.5 hrs just today!! He gave up.
