I have had Vista for a long time. Recently I install some updates and the new
Nvidia graphic driver 175.16 for Geforce 8800 GT. After when I boo the monitor goes in sleep mode during start up. Everything is working in the background but I have a black screen. Tried to go back to the previous graphic driver but the problem was the same. When I uninstall the graphic driver (in safe mode) the computer boots normally. I have never had these problems and I guess it is related to some Vista updates. I have reinstalled Vista and updated it (so no other installed appliactions), and the problem is the same. Installed graphic driver = monitor in sleep mode. Do you have any suggestions .. some power management or something. I have a Gigabyte nforce 650i motherboard with newest bios and drivers (which are quite old actually |

Boot into Safe Mode and lower the screen resolution as low as it will go.
Restart the system and slowly and carefully, one step at a time, raise resolution until it's where you want it to be or the screen blacks out again. If the screen blacks out just wait and it will come back. -- Richard G. Harper [MVP Shell/User] * NEW!
