I have heard this issue happening a lot with Gigabyte MBs and other TV cards too.For everyone's entertainment I will share with you the response I got from Gigabyte:Dear Scott,Due to sleep issue is usually related to memory modules, VGA driver and Genuine Windows OS, please try the following steps:1. Please first Load Optimized Default BIOS setting and test your system in a simple environment :If your M/B is inside a case, please make sure that there's not a short circuit. You can try building the whole system outside the case. And please remove such as add-on cards, devices from motherboard, only install CPU, single memory, single HDD, VGA card and power, and make sure the components on the motherboard are installed properly. If there's nothing wrong in simple environment, try to install several additional cards into the slot one by one to observe the result again and again. 2. If possible, we suggest you try to test your system with other memory, or the memory listed on the memory support list from our website to see if there's a memory or motherboard problem, for memory support list, please click HERE.3. Please remove current VGA driver, restart OS and reinstall it from our website. For VGA driver, please click HERE. As for Aver media a188D DVB-T card, we suggest you can contact the card manufacturer to see if they can provide you new firmware/ driver to update.4. Please confirm there is no insufficient power or overheat problem with your system and the TV card. To meet expansion requirements, it is recommended that a power supply that can withstand high power consumption be used 500W or greater. If a power supply is used that does not provide the required power, the result can lead to an unstable or unbootable system.If the problem still exists, please backup your data and try to reinstall O.S. (make sure it is genuine version released by Microsoft and update to latest service pack). If it still doesn't help, we recommend you to contact your supplier (where you bought the MB) and see if they could help you do the further examination on your motherboard.Regards,GIGABYTEThe only suggestion I see of being real value here is the one to reset the BIOS settings. I specifically bought RAM from their preferred list, I have a 540W power supply, and the other options seem extremely unlikely to do anything other than waste my time.Cheers - Scott</blockquote>
