Hiya all

I have an annoying issue with hibernation that drives me cracy.

Every time my PC wakes up after hibernation, and I play a moviefile or just
test directx, my PC halts.

This does not happen after a regular poweron.

It ONLY happens after a wake up from hibernation followed by playing a
MPG/AVI or dxdiag, so I think it has something to do with graphics not
beeing restored properly to its previous state.
The file will play for a few seconds to a few minutes, and then the PC
halts, and I need to reset it.

I have tried all kinda settings in bios and another driver for my videocard.

I have XP SP1 and ATI radeon 7000 videocard.

Any advice ?

Thanks,

Jimmy Hansen
