I think it was related with screen refresh, after coming back on the card would default the Frequency settings above the acceptable range for my TV and thus I would not get any picture back on...
That was like 5 - 6 months ago I really dont know what I did, I know that I kept updating the Nvidia drivers and eventually that issue was resolved. It must have been with some of the screen resolution settings in the Nvidia Control Panel.
What kind of display do you have? Make sure that the correct refresh settings are selected in the display properties.
