    G51 rx-05 - no video after sleep

    greetings,

    i have been enjoying my BB g51 for a several weeks now. in fact installing MW2 on it now.

    in any case, sometimes when i open the lid after the computer has been sleeping (the lights on the lid are blinking slowly) the computer itself wakes up. i can hear HD activity and see the act. light flicker, but no video comes back. the computer is working... i can access it over the network, etc, and the backlight comes on, but no picture.

    i have tried plugging in an external monitor at that time but no video is piped out either. putting the computer back to sleep and waking up has no effect.

    i was just wondering if anyone else is having this issue? I installed new nvidia drivers for 7 x64 a few days after getting the computer, but i can't remember if it happened at all before that. just wondering if anyone had seen this before i dump the current driver set and reinstall.

    on that note, what do you guys think are the best driver version for this computer and the 260? right now i am using 186.81.

    thanks!
