No problem here with a SilverStoneTek LC16M and an iMON display.
It clears the lcd on suspending and start its correctly after resume.
Maybe you should try the other iMON display driver. I'm using the SoundGraph iMON USB driver V1.0

Me too uses the the Soundgraph iMon USB driver v1. 0
Boelshit, have you tried hibernation in stead of suspend?
When MP kicks back in, the LCD is functioning correctly. I just don't like to see the LCD lit when the machine is in hibernation.

I tried hibernate now and yes the display isnt cleared also. Not a real problem for me cause I use standby which is much quicker in powering up again.
it seems like MP is not closing the plugins nicely when going to hibernate. I get a different log when going to standby.
Do you see anything like this in your log?

I'll have a look at it.... again 
As Boelshit has noted, MP does not stop the plugins when it starts hibernation. My plugin has some code to try and detect a hibernation event, but it seems that this code is sometimes called too late (when the system is resuming again)
I'll propose to the other developers to change MP so that it stops ALL plugins before hibernating and restarts them when it resumes again...

Thx JoeDalton!
BTW: Which event causes the plugin to search for DLPORTIO.dll? Sometimes, when I start MP, I'm bugged by a popup which says it can't find DLPORTIO.dll. And that's rather strange, because the Soundgraph iMon USB driver does not need this dll.

I have the same problem with the DLPORTIO.DLL now, but didn't know what it was related to. I'm sure I didn't see it before I started to update with the SVN's.
I'm running 0.2RC4 with the latest SVN.
I'm also using Soundgraph iMon USB driver v1. 0, this is the only one working for me (I have iMON VFD)
The problem occurs when MP is starting plugins and it shows up approx. 4 out of 10 times I Restart my HTPC.

Hmm. DLPORTIO.dll is from the DriverLynx Port I/O Driver. Normally you shouldn't get an errormessage about it if it isn't installed.
Did you perhaps create a dummy DLPORTIO.dll to shut up some previous version of my plugin that refused to work without it?
