no monitor after resume from standby

[Guest rac8006]

I've had a problem where the monitor stays in standby mode when I resume the

computer using XP Pro SP2. I've tried two different video cards. The only

way to get the system back is to pull the power cord.

I've gone so far as to remove the video card and put it into a different

system and it works fine. When I put it back into the failed system it still

fails. Once I pull the power cord wait 5 seconds and put the cord back in

the system it boots up fine.

 

Any itdeas whats going on?

Did you try plugging the monitor into the other system to see if it

behaved the same?
