"No Signal" from Asus VH242H when coming out of sleep

[wishman35]

I just got my new computer put together a few weeks ago. Its great except for the fact that my monitor when coming out of sleep sometimes does not get a signal.. (I was told putting it to sleep is better than shutdown every time)

I would say 7 times out of 10 it works fine. The other 3 times I need to power the computer down improperly to get the screen working again.

I updated the graphic card drivers last week but the issue hasn't gotten any better.

EVGA SuperClocked 02G-P4-3662-KR GeForce GTX 660 Ti 2GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

It seems you are not alone.

I had a similar issue with my 7970 and it was a driver update that fixed my issue. I have no sleep problems with my card now.

You might well find out that down the line Nvidia will release a driver that fixes this.
