Default Crashed from sleep mode


Hi,

I'm running two monitors off one video card. My power button is set to
sleep mode. Three times now that I've hit the button and return from
sleep mode, it shows me computer restarting and the Load windows in
"safe mode" screen. I have one Samsung CRT 765MB and one Samsung CRT
710M. My catalyst drivers are 8.8. Anyone else have this problem? Safe
mode works just fine with one monitor but it totally bombs itself with
two screens.

Default Crashed from sleep mode


Hmm it seems no one is able to help me. Well, for those who may have
this problem in the future here is an update:



- Sleep mode with Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit *does not work with
multidisplays *using the radeon HD4850 running Catalyst 8.7 or
Catalyst 8.8. It works only on a single display and will not work even
when the secondary display is disabled. The secondary monitor must be
physically detached from the graphics card (remove the DVI, AGP, or
S-Video cable) for the system to return from sleep mode.


If anyone cares to change that conclusion be my guest. As far as I'm
concerned, this is simply the reality of things on my end. Thanks for
those who were willing to try.
