I *know* this topic has been beaten like a dead horse, I've searched everywhere and i can't find a solution. The problem being, my stand by/hibernation problems are different from everyone else's...
 
I've had my TNT2 before and I never had these issues. i could standby/hibernate no prob. When I got my current geforce 2 gts, I couldn't do any of it anymore.(asus v7700)
 
Where it differs: Most people with similar setups can't RECOVER from a standby/hibernation sequence. My prob is that I can't even START the standby/hibernation sequence. It'll load into the "preparing your system to standby" screen and it'll hang there. I can move my mouse, move the little window, but the blue animation bar doesn't move and my system is unrecoverable except for the reset button.
 
Does anyone have any more info about this? any suggestions? I'm running Win2k regular ACPI system HAL, Asus v7700(GF2), Asus A7V, SBlive, NIC, 2 HDD's, DVD,CDR....
 
I've experimented and any combination of Fast Writes, SBA, 4x AGP, enabling on the OS side doesn't affect anything. Disabling 4x AGP, FW, from the BIOS doesn't do anything. I've tried to manually set AGP strength(DA and EA) but both don't do anything, aaand... that's about it...
 
Any suggestions? (short of a reinstall).
 
Thanks in Advance
